Step 3 (optional): Format your memory card, continued

Once the formatting of the card is

completed the MAIN\ panel will

reappear.

Step 4: Begin a survey

Enter the Survey operation by either

pressing 1 in the Main\ panel or by

first navigating to "1 Survey" via

cursor keys and then pressing

ENTER or F1 CONT.

The following panel will appear:

Some basic decisions have to be

made in this panel:

Which configuration set should be

activated, in which job the raw data

should be stored and which antenna

setup should be used.

Use the cursor key to highlight

Internal, then press ENTER. Then

press F1 CONT in order to start the

formatting process of the internal

memory.

Warning
By activating the format

command all data will be lost!

Make sure that all important

data which resides on the

PC-card is properly backed-

up before reformatting the

card. If you want to reformat

the internal memory make

sure that all important data is

first transferred to the PC.

If you realize that you do not want to

format the memory device, simply

press ESC instead of F1 CONT. This

keystroke brings you always a step

back into the previous panel without

execution of any command.
