650 MDS Section 3
Note that the data from two sites is identified by the Site Number attached to each data record. To index
these numbers to the appropriate locations, the user must consult the Site list by activating Edit site list
from the 650 Logging setup menu. The correlation between site names and numbers is found here,
indicating that Site 1 is WEST and Site 2 is EAST.
This file will remain in 650 memory so that you can return to each location at a future time and log more
data to the Site designations WEST and EAST. The key for this site list setup is that all data logged will
be stored in the same file (BLUELAKE) under different Site Numbers for each location (1 for WEST and
2 for EAST).
NOTE CAREFULLY: The same limitation noted above applies for appending the file BLUELAKE with
additional data from these or other sites – the logging setup (sonde parameters, barometer, GPS) must be
identical to that for the initially-stored data. If there has been a change in setup, the Site Designation will
be "grayed-out" in the Site List indicating a parameter mismatch.
3.5.3.4 EDITING YOUR SITE LIST
The 650 software provides powerful tools for editing your site list. Actions such as inserting (adding) new
entries, deleting existing entries, and moving entries within the list can be carried out easily from the
keypad. Highlight the Edit site list entry in the 650 Logging setup display and press Enter to show the
following screen.
Note that the keystrokes for editing the site list are shown in the bottom of the Main Display. Thus, to
insert (add) a file above the present cursor position, simply highlight the proper entry and press the Right
arrow key while holding down the Enter key as shown in the following example. Note that two sites were
inserted in the initial site list using this method.
