Closing A File; Downloading A File; Deleting A File - ashtech ZY-12 Information Supplement

Closing a File

Files automatically close when the receiver is powered off. During data recording,
you can close a file and open a new one without turning off the power:
1. From Screen 8, press [e] to shift to data-entry mode. Use the number keys,
and enter [1] [2] [3].
2. Pressing [e] again closes the file and opens a new one; if no data has been
logged to the current file, you cannot open a new file.

Downloading a File

Files in external memory can be downloaded using Remote.exe or Thales
Navigation Download programs. The receiver-PC connections are as follows:
1. Connect an RS-232 cable to a serial port (port 1 is preferred) on the receiver
and to COM1 (preferred) on the PC.
2. Turn the receiver on.
3. Download the data with the software on your PC.

Deleting a File

You can delete a file at any time. However, before deleting a file, check that it is
not needed or the information downloaded.
To delete a file,
1. Go to Screen 8 which displays all files in memory.
2. If there are more than 10 files in the receiver, use the up and down arrow keys
to scroll to the page with the desired file.
3. Press [e] to shift to data-entry mode. Highlight the file you want to delete.
4. Use the number keys and enter [4] [5] [6]. Press [e] again and wait until the
end of the current cycle for the file to be deleted and erased from the display.
Each time the receiver is turned on, a new empty file is opened. If this file is
deleted before closing it, any data collected append to the last file in the list.
