4.9.2 Selecting a New File
Located on the Main tool bar, as well as in the Sonar Data Recorder dialog box, is
the
New Data File
button.
New Data File
Click this button to force the start of a new data file. For example, if you want to
have a survey line all in one file, when setting up a survey you would set the file
length to be longer than the time it will take to gather the data (but not more than
6000 minutes) on the survey line. When you reach the end of the line and are ready
to start a new line, click the New Data File button to force a new file to begin.
