Technical Reference Manual-4.0.0en

If the PCMCIA card has been format-
ted on the sensor (Please refer to the
H/W user manual), then the following
directory structure should appear on
the card.

Real Time Beacon Stations
It is possible to select a beacon ser-
vice from a list that can be placed on
the PCMCIA card. The file must be
called beacon.txt, saved in the GPS
directory and finally be transferred to
the sensor.

The frequency of the beacon service
should be placed on the left, with the
description on the right, seperated by
a space as (shown right).

Sensor Transfer with SKI-Pro/GIS
DataPRO

Using the Remote interface it is
possible to download data directly
from the memory device of the sensor
into SKI-Pro or GIS DataPRO through
the serial port of the PC without
having to remove the TR500 from the
Terminal port.

Configure the Remote interface to the
appropriate port and device as
described in chapter 9.15 “Interfaces-
Remote”. This should normally be
Port 2 and RS232 device using the
standard System 500 download
cable.

Connect the sensor to the PC. Data
can now be downloaded to the PC, in
the normal manner, using the Sensor
Transfer component in SKI-Pro.

Compact Flash - Directory Structure and Transfer
Using the standard default for external PCMCIA Flash memory, Firmware,
Rawdata and Configuration information can easily be transferred to and from
the GIS DataPRO software.
Using Windows Explorer to transfer data
To transfer data from the PCMCIA card to your PC, for use by the GIS
DataPRO software, you must first understand the directory/storing structure
of the GS50 / GS50+ sensor.
