Trimble R7 Operation
6.3 Transferring Data
Transfer the data files to the computer using the Trimble Data Transfer
utility. You can run this utility as a standalone program or from within
Trimble Geomatics Office. For more information about the transfer
process, refer to the Data Transfer Help.
Note – When you connect to a receiver in the Data Transfer utility, you
must use a GPS Receiver (R/5000 Series) device definition. If you use
a GPS Receiver (4000 Series) device definition, the Data Transfer
utility will be unable to establish communication with the receiver.
When transfer is complete, the Data Transfer utility automatically
converts the file to the DAT format. If you are using Data Transfer
from within Trimble Geomatics Office, the Check-in dialog appears.
For more information, refer to the Trimble Geomatics Office User
Guide.
Note – A file in DAT format is approximately six times the size of the
corresponding file in the Trimble R7 internal format. Before
transferring files, make sure that there is enough space on your
computer.
