3M dynatel m-series Manuale Utente

 

 
ArcPad™ is a stand-alone application that runs on the GPS device. Many GPS 
devices including Trimble™ GeoXT™, Thales™ MobileMapper™ CE.NET 
support ArcPad™. 
 
3M™ provides the application scripts that would need to be installed on the GPS 
device. These scripts provide interface to the 3M™ Dynatel™ Locator and the 
ArcPad™ application / GPS device. The scripts are designed to provide Job 
management functions and provide mapping functionality. 
 
As the data records come in from the Locator, the record is matched against 
previous records. If there is a matching record from an existing “Layer”, the 
feature point is added to that layer with all the other GPS data. If the record 
belongs to a new type of “description”, a new layer is automatically created and 
the feature point is attached. 
 
Please refer to the section “Mode 2 operation – GIS mode” for more details. 
 

 
It is expected that ArcPad™ application is already installed on the GPS device. 
The 3M™ ArcPad™ application scripts run on GPS devices that support 
Arcpad™ scripting. The scripts were tested on Trimble™ GeoXT™ and Thales™ 
MobileMapper™ CE.NET. 
 
The installation of 3M™ Arcpad™ scripts would involve copying the following 
NINE files into the “Applets” folder of the Arcpad™ installation where Arcpad.exe 
exists on the GPS device.

3MLocator.bmp 

  2. 

IDShapefile.apl 

3. 

IDShapefile.vbs 

  4.

These script files are provided in a zip file and can be downloaded from the 3M™ 
website at www.3M.com/dynatel 
 
The zip file needs to be extracted to a local folder. 
Typically, Microsoft ActiveSync application can be used to explore the device.
