7.3 Operation
Figure 7.8: Set Location dialog
The “Set location” dialog is used to type in your location and have it verified on the world map. Use the following
steps to set the location:
1. Type the exact location coordinates (in degrees) of the SQM-LU into the “Desired” fields.
2. The mouse pointer can be used to select an approximate location if you are not sure of the exact coordinates.
3. The “Elevation” entry is optional as it is not used for anything yet.
4. Press the “Apply” button when you are satisfied with the desired values. Note: The “Apply” button will only be
enabled if there is a difference between the desired and actual values.
5. Press “Close” when you are satisfied with the actual values.
The “Local timezone region” and “Local timezone name” are required by UDM to calculate local times of the recorded
data before storing to disk. UTC timestamps are stored in the SQM-LU.
The cover offset is a text only field that indicates what offset was used on the calibration data of the SQM-LU.
7.3.5 Tools menu
Tools : old log to dat
The “old log to dat” tool is used to convert the original .log files that UDM created before the .dat file was made standard.
Figure 7.9 shows the setup dialog for conversion.
