Overview—RiverSurveyor Live for Mobile Software
Due to combined portability and ease of use, we recommend the Mobile device for making dis-
charge measurements. The
RiverSurveyor Live for PC
software (described in section 6) can al-
so be used for making discharge measurements and has the added ability to apply powerful da-
ta viewing and post-processing capabilities (described in section 8).
Before getting started in the field, remember that the Mobile device has some setup require-
ments, as does any mobile device/phone: Battery must be installed and charged, necessary
software installed, and Bluetooth configured.

Note: The Motorola Q, Q9h, Q9m and Q9c have been tested for full compatibility. Other Mobile
