Data Files
GNSS raw data files (G-files) recorded by the receiver (see
Step-by-Step Procedure on page 31) can be made available
to the post-processing software in one of three ways:
• Either you record them directly to the SD card you’ve
inserted into the receiver. Back in the office, just remove
the SD card from the receiver, insert it into the computer’s
SD card reader and start the post-processing phase.
• Or you first record them to the receiver’s internal memory.
Back in the office, turn on the receiver and wait until it
has booted. Then insert an SD card into the receiver.
When you insert an SD Card while the receiver is on, the
front panel display prompts you to copy all the G-files from
the internal memory to the SD Card, which you can accept
by pressing the Scroll button. After the files have been
copied to the SD card, remove that card, insert it into the
computer’s SD card reader and start the post-processing
phase.
• Or using your field software (Survey Pro or FAST Survey).
These applications can also be used to delete G-files
directly from the receiver.
Once your G-files have been duplicated by your post-
processing software, they may be deleted from the SD card.
If they were initially recorded in the receiver’s internal
memory, use the SP80 embedded function accessible via the
front panel display to delete either all G-files, or all types of
files, from the internal memory. It can also be used to
reformat the entire memory. See function flowchart below.
