Uploading Jobs and Waypoints to ProMark3
Jobs and waypoints associated with jobs are uploaded through
the same procedure.
The way waypoints are uploaded and made available on the
ProMark3 depends on whether the uploaded job is “empty”
(i.e. there is no GIS data in it, just waypoints) or not:
- If the job is “empty”, the uploaded waypoints will replace
the list of existing waypoints stored in the ProMark3. Prior
to uploading, a message will warn you that the waypoints
currently stored in ProMark3 will be deleted.
- If the job is not “empty” (i.e. it contains GIS data), way-
points are uploaded as a separate MMW file associated
with the MMJ job file. On ProMark3, these waypoints will
be visible only when you open the corresponding job.
These waypoints will add up to the list of existing way
-
points.
Assuming the ProMark3 unit is connected to the PC via the
USB or RS232 cable, it has been turned on and you have dou-
ble-tapped the Mobile Mapping icon, do the following on PC
side:
- Launch MobileMapper Office.
- Open the MMJ job file you want to upload
- Click to read the list of waypoints associated with the
job. If you change the list, save the job before continuing.
- Select File>Upload to GPS>Job.
• If the job is “empty”, a message will warn you that all
waypoints currently stored in the ProMark3 will be lost
if you continue. Click
Yes if you agree and then wait
until the upload procedure is complete.
• If the job is not “empty”, MobileMapper Office will
successively upload the MMJ file and then the MMW
file.
To create a waypoint
in a job:
Click on in the
MobileMapper Office tool-
bar and then click where to
create the waypoint on the
Map Display area. If neces-
sary, adjust its coordinates,
icon and name in the edit
box on the right.
For more detail, please
refer to the Using the Way-
point/Route Editor Chapter
in the MobileMapper Office
User Manual.
