Z-Max Surveying System Operation and Applications Manual
When GPS measurements are being collected or when surveys are being performed,
data is automatically stored in the Z-Max memory. Therefore, there are no additional
steps required to save information collected during a survey. Operational parameters
control how the Z-Max operates and collects data. Operational parameters, including
recording interval and antenna height, entered or modified by the user with the Front
Panel User Interface will not automatically be saved to memory after a power cycle
unless they are explicitly saved. The operational parameters of the Z-Max are saved
as a group in one step. Go to the SETTINGS submenu and select the SAVE option to
save operational parameters to memory. If the operational parameters of the Z-Max
are not explicitly saved, the unit will revert to factory defaults or the last saved
parameter set after a power cycle.
By default, the receiver will emit a beep every time a control key is pressed. To
disable this beep, go to the SETTINGS menu, and scroll to the BEEP submenu, and
select OFF. Be aware that the beep is used as an audible alert for many types of
messages and warnings. Disabling the BEEP will disable the audible warnings as
well.
