3.2.1 Opening and Closing the Access Door
To open the access door, simply press down on the grey latch
release and let go. The access door will spring open. Lift up on
the access door handle to gain access to the two battery
compartments and the data card compartment. You now have
full access to the Radian IS internal batteries and data card.
To close the access door, use the handle to lift the door back to
its closed position. Insert the lip of the connector end of the
access door handle into the slot at the top of the Radian IS
access door opening. Push the access door handle down into
the space on the outside of the access door until you hear a
click. Your Radian IS access door is now closed and the batteries
and data card are sealed into the waterproof compartment.
Figure 9 shows the Radian IS access door in its closed and open
position.

3.2.2 Data Card
Data can be stored on a CompactFlash data card; a memory
card which you can access, exchange and replace when needed.
The need for a companion handheld data collector is
unnecessary when continuous user interaction is not required
because the Radian IS is capable of collecting data according to
pre-configured parameters without any user intervention (see
Section 4.5.2.2, Using the POWERUP Configuration, on Page 47).
In applications when continuous user interaction is required,
the data collector can be used with Radian IS.
