Step 1: Un-install Any Previous MicroSurvey Activesync Add-On Modules

Note: Do NOT un-install Activesync itself.

Our new MicroSurvey Transfer program still uses Activesync, but we no longer install any components into the Activesync program.

Step 2: Install MicroSurvey Transfer

The New MicroSurvey Transfer program is designed to make file transfers with FieldGenius much easier than previous solutions. Install MicroSurvey Transfer before updating your FieldGenius.

Step 3: Install FieldGenius

The installs below are single exe files that can be downloaded and executed from your desktop computer. The install will attempt to connect to your device through Activesync and install the software. Using Activesync you and maintain the installation on the device by using the Add/Remove programs option on the Options Menu.

Important Note: Older Panasonics running Windows CE 3.0 (start button at bottom) must have ROM version V1.00L21E installed to run FG2004. Check the ROM version under Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> System -> Settings -> Version

FieldGenius for the Topcon FC-100

The installation is in two parts. The Basic/Pro/Robotics module must be installed. The GPS Module files are only necessary if you want the Datums & Coordinate systems installed.

Note: the installer for the FC1000 is a bit unreliable. We use the Installshield installation system, and they do not seem to support this unit very well. After installing the GPS files, please check to make sure that they were installed in a Mapping directory below the FieldGenius Programs directory. To clarify, the path to the GPS files on the FC1000 must be:

\Storage Card\MicroSurvey FieldGenius\Programs\Mapping

We have seen the installer create a directory on the root of the Storage Card called "MicroSurvey FieldGenius GPS Files". If this happens, please create a Mapping directory and move the files into it. Please call MicroSurvey if you have any questions.

Install the Basic/Pro/Robotics module

Install the optional GPS Files
