Buttons Settings

The Pocket PC operating system allows you to reprogram the default
function of the physical buttons on the data collector. These are called
global functions since each button will perform the same custom task
when used within any application.

Note: The Windows CE .NET operating system does not
support the reprogramming of the data collector’s buttons.

The Buttons Settings screen in Survey Pro also allows you
to customize these buttons, but it is more powerful than
the Windows Pocket PC utility because you can set the
global function of each button as well as the local function
of each button. A local function only affects the behavior of
a button when it is used within Survey Pro. When you are
outside Survey Pro, the button functions will return to
their global definitions.

Customizing the buttons for Survey Pro on Pocket PC can
be very useful for navigating in and using the software.
For example, a button can be programmed to take a shot from a total
station making it unnecessary to look at the data collector’s screen to
perform this task.

The upper area of the Buttons Settings screen displays the current
local and global assignment for all the keys that can be customized.
To change a particular button assignment, select that button from
this area.
