Survey Measurements
RD8000 locator models are capable of recording up to 1000 survey measurements to
internal memory.
If the locator is a GPS model or if paired to Pocket PC (or PDA) with GPS, running a
compatible application such as SurveyCERT the locator will append positional information
alongside time and date to the data, providing spatial context.
NOTE: The internal GPS module needs to be switched on and connected to the
GPS satellite system.
Saving measurements
To save survey measurements, press the
To achieve accurate results the locator must be kept as still as possible during the saving
process.
The locator will always save measurements to internal memory. If Bluetooth is switched
on, paired to a device and BT-PC is enabled, , the locator will also attempt to send
the saved measurement to a paired PDA running SurveyCERT or to a PC running a
compatible application.
If your PC or PDA is out of reach, or if its Bluetooth features are disabled, the locator will
display an error code. To avoid these errors disable the Bluetooth survey measurements
transmission or ensure that your PC or PDA is within range and correctly paired.
NOTE: A flashing depth and/or current reading display means that the
measurement is poor and should be taken again. Poor readings may be caused by
nearby conductors or sources of electromagnetic interference.
Erasing measurements
The RD8000 locator allows you to delete all measurements. Erasing the log will wipe the
RD8000 memory and is usually recommended when you begin a new survey.
WARNING! Erasing measurements cannot be undone! Proceed with caution!
