laser include LTI Map, LTI Face Profiler, and
Traverse PC Handheld. Available interfaces for
GPS mapping systems include Ashtech Reliance,
Trimble Pathfinder, and CMT MC-GPS. Please call
us for more information on application software.

Downloading

Measurement data can be downloaded using one
of three methods: manual download, automatic
download, or query.
Page 51
The data you wish to download must appear in the
display window for either instrument invoked or
requested data to be valid. If there are no
measurements available to download, the
instrument downloads null or zero values.
When a measurement is available, the DNLD
indicator displays. In that case, you can download
by query or manually by short-pressing Forward. A
successful download will be noted by a flashing
DNLD indicator, then it will disappear. Even if the
DNLD indicator is not showing, downloading is
always available by long-pressing the Forward
button.
The automatic download mode, when activated,
downloads values automatically
