If the start time has already passed, the unit starts immediately. Otherwise it displays:

07:00 to 19:00

Where 050916 is the current time in hhmmss.
•
When the start time is reached, the survey begins.
NOTE:
The start time indicates the beginning of the survey and NOT the time of the first
reading. Depending on the selected cycling rate the time of the first reading of the
file is delayed. Furthermore, to preserve the battery the GPS module is turned off
while waiting for a program start. If GPS is enabled, the unit turns on GPS and
waits for GPS lock and UTC synchronization. This imposes a further delay on the
time required for the first reading.
At the stop time, the unit stops cycling, turns off GPS if enabled, closes the current file and waits
for the start time the next day.
The daily survey loop can only be stopped by pressing
1C
either while taking readings or while
waiting for the start time.
