The user may choose to delete the “rxMaps” folder. If Rx map color templates
have been previously created, these are stored in the “colors” folder that is con-
tained within the ‘rxMaps” folder. In this scenario, the “rxMaps” folder should not
be deleted, but the individual prescription maps contained within this folder could be
deleted if they are no longer needed.
Standard Maintenance Procedure
1. Cut and paste the rbin files contained within the “rbin” folder on the flashdisk
to the ‘Viper Rbin’ file you created on your personal computer.
2. Delete the streetmaps or rxMaps folders if you do not need them anymore.
3. Delete the scout, covMaps, jobs, and vnav folders.
4. Delete the “zulu.ini” file.
Advanced
Procedure
(for saving
existing field
boundaries)
If existing field boundaries are to remain on the Main tab, the user must delete
individual files from specific folders on the flashdisk when doing maintenance. If the
boundary contains multiple jobs, only the files associated with the first job in the list
will need to be maintained on the flashdisk. You can access the list by pressing the
“information” screen tool and then the selected boundary on the Viper screen. The
first job that originally generated the boundary will be “Job 1 of X”, the X indicating
the total number of jobs started using the original boundary. Note this job file name
for future reference.
Files that should be archived will be in the “rbin” folder on the flashdisk and have a
.rbin file extension. The user should create a folder on the hard drive of their per-
sonal computer called ‘Viper Rbin’, or some other name that associates the folder
with the Rbin files from the flashdisk. The Rbin files contain the application reports
generated by Viper and can also be exported as shapefiles for use in other software
programs.
The “settings” folder and the “streetmaps” folder will typically be left on the flashdisk
with no deletions. The “settings” folder will contain information that had been pre-
viously entered into the Viper system by the user and typically needs to remain on
the flashdisk for future access. This information can include user genreated ma-
chine profiles, product information, customer information, field information, etc. The
“streetmaps” folder may contain the county road information if those files had been
previously saved to the folder and installed on to the Viper system. If so, do not
delete the “streetmaps” folder. If the user is not utilizing the streetmaps feature, the
“streetmaps” folder may be deleted.
The user may choose to delete the “rxMaps” folder. If Rx map color templates
have been previously created, these are stored in the “colors” folder that is con-
tained within the “rxMaps” folder. In this scenario, the “rxMaps” folder would not
be deleted, but the individual prescription maps contained within this folder could be
deleted if they are no longer needed.
