Using Survey Pro
Tapping the screen with a stylus is the primary method for
interaction with Survey Pro.
You can start Survey Pro by tapping the
icon,
selecting Programs, then selecting Survey Pro.
Note: The proper way to exit Survey Pro is by selecting
File , Exit
from the Main Menu. Exiting in this way
guarantees that the settings will get saved properly to
the registry.
Once Survey Pro is started, the Survey Pro splash screen
will open. Since Survey Pro requires a job to be opened
when it starts, you will be prompted to open a recently
opened job, an existing job, or to create a new job. The
example below briefly explains how to create a new job
so you can begin exploring the software.
1. Tap the New… button. The Create a New Job dialog
box will open, which prompts you for a job name
where the current date is the default name.
2. Either type in a new job name or accept the default
name. Control points can optionally be used or
imported from another existing job by checking the
Use or Import a Control File checkbox. (See Page 36
for more information on control files.) For this
example, leave this unchecked and tap Next > to
continue.
