Section 12 - Capturing Screens and
Emailing mini-reports

12.1 Capturing Screens

If you would like to save an image of the current screen in Line Scan, Grid Scan, Slice View or
Map View, press the

Camera

button on the Display Unit. This saves the screen as a Screenshot

image (.JPG), which you can view in your preferred viewing software. If any GPS is enabled, the
screenshot image (only for Line Scan and Slice View screens) will also contain a geo-tagged
reference.

If you are not connected to a WiFi network, a message appears confirming the filename of the
saved image (Figure 12-1).

Figure 12-1: Message displayed after pressing the camera button on the Display Unit to capture
the screen (no WiFi present).

If you are connected to a wireless network and have a sending email address configured, you
will see the message in Figure 12-2, asking if you would like to email the screenshot and prompt
you to enter the email address. The email address defaults to the last one entered. Pressing the
“

…

” button to the left of the email address displays the last 5 email addresses used, allowing

you easily to select a recent email, rather than having to re-enter it.

Screenshots can always be emailed at a later time from the Screenshot Gallery (see

Screenshot Gallery

in

Section 6.3

for details).
