N_SIGHT R900 User’s Manual for the Neptune Handheld System 7-1
7 Communicating with the Host Computer
Once the software for the Neptune handheld system is set up and the
hardware is connected as described in either “Setting Up the CE5320,”
on page 3-3 or “Setting Up the Nomad,” on page 4-3, use the procedures
of this chapter to exchange informatio
n with the host computer
. During
a typical information exchange, assignments and other route data, such
as code tables, are sent to the handheld, and meter readings and route
information are sent to the host.
Exchanging Information
There are several methods you can use to exchange information with the
host computer. The method for exchanging information is called
synchronize.
Synchronize—initiates a
two-way communication between the
handheld and
the host computer in which the handheld sends
information to the host computer and also receives information from the
host computer.
Exiting the Software
When you have completed all the reads in your routes, you exit the
software, and upload the route information to the N_SIGHT R900 host
software. To exit the software, complete the following procedure.
