You can change the rest of the configuration values as needed. Here are detailed descriptions for
each of them:
'Base Project Folder'
(Hidden when Simple)
This is the full Window’s path to the
Base folder where all of the data is stored. The default location
is in your 'Documents' folder in a folder named iGx_Projects.
Double-click over the current path to change the folder location.
The download tool will create a sub-folder for each Project that you add. In addition, there are
always three special folders:
_New
New occupation files downloaded from the receiver are placed here first.
_Deleted
Deleted occupations are not really deleted, they are moved to the _Deleted folder. An undelete
function is included in Utilities on the Settings tab.
_Error
Sometimes short occupations won't include navigation records, these short files end up in this
folder.
'Archive All Projects'
(Hidden when Simple)
Pressing the 'Archive' button to the right of the Base Project Folder entry will back up every
occupation in every project to a single ZIP file.
This is handy if you want to move all your data to another computer or make regular disaster
backups.
There are similar Archive buttons on the main page: one archives the current occupation and the
other archives the current project.
The download tool does not provide a method to restore these backups, however they are standard
ZIP files and the Windows operating system does include a tool to decompress them.
