Palm™ Desktop Software


Prior to use, the Palm™ Desktop Software as supplied on the CD-ROM disc (Artex
P/N 510-1200) supplied must be installed on your Windows
95/NT/98/2000/Me/XP PC that will be used to interface with the ETS. Follow the
on-screen instructions for installation.

Note: The Palm desktop software works most amiably if a single Meazura (Palm)
device is associated with a single computer. It is possible to use more than one
Meazura (or Palm) device with the same computer but attention must be given to
the selection of appropriate user names when transferring data to and from
different units. The Palm software identifies the User Name when the Palm
Desktop application is installed on a PC. Only one User Name can be used with
the Artex applications.

Sarcalc Desktop


The Sarcalc Desktop application SarCalc Desktop V1.2 (or higher) may also be
installed on a PC (available free for download at

www.acrartex.com

). Once

installed, the entire Sarcalc or Artex database can be reviewed. Note: The
Meazura unit must be HotSync'd with the Palm Desktop software to load the
database from the Meazura unit to the PC. Once sync'd, the database can be
opened on the PC by starting the SarCalcDesk.exe application and opening the
database from the file menu. The Palm HotSync will usually store the database
file in C:\ProgramFiles\Palm\Artex\Backup\ (where Artex is the Meazura user
name. Be sure to use the “Artex” user name whenever performing a “HotSync”.
All Artex provided software is loaded to the Meazura using this user name.) The
database will be named SarcalcDB.PDB. If the Meazura was set-up on the PC
with a different User Name than “Artex”, check the folder for that User Name to
locate the Backup file to find the Sarcalc and Artex database information.

Hot Sync


Once installed and configured, the Palm™ Desktop Software will allow installation
of additional software applications as well as performing the hot sync function to
transfer data to and from the ETS (Meazura unit). Artex provides a USB cable
(452-0103) to connect to a PC. The hot sync function is accessed by tapping the
