H04001 - Can I retrieve data from the TRAX while it is recording in the field?
There are several ways this can be done, depending on the type of TRAX you are using.
If you are using a TRAX Totalizer or TRAX Accumulator, totals can be read directly from the display.
For the TRAX I, TRAX II, TRAX Mite and TRAX RD, you must first turn the unit off, then turn it back on and let it boot up to the Main Menu before downloading your data. Turning the unit off stores the count, and you can then download it to a computer. Once the data is downloaded, you can start up a new count.
With the TRAX Plus, stored files can be downloaded at any time while the display is active. It does not have to be at the Main Menu. You can connect a laptop and retrieve stored files while the current count is still running.
If you are using a Data Module, press the DO key while the current count is running and you will be given option to enter the Module Commands screen. You are also given the option to immediately stop the current count and start a new one with the same settings. This allows you to retrieve all the data up to the current time.
