3PREPARATION OF THE INSTRUMENT

3.1 OBTAINING SYSTEM FILES

When receiving a new instrument, it should be checked that the latest firmware version is

installed. The installed version can be seen in the “GeoMax Toolkit” application installed.

To accessed start “GeoMax Toolkit” and select “SysInfo” (2). Select the second tab-page

to see the version information. If this version does not match the one available from

GeoMax Partner Area, then the instrument should be updated.

To customize the instrument for personel requirements, the respective languages can be

installed. The required files can be obtained from GeoMax Partner Area in the

Zoom70/90/Firmware folder and are in the following format:

Zoom70_90_EN.fw - The “main” OS and application firmware file where “EN” stands

for “English”.

GeoMaxToolkit_en_us.sus - An example language file. “en” indicates the English

language and “us” stands for United States.

Zoom70/90 Series - 5 -

3.2 UPLOADING TO THE INSTRUMENT

The system files are uploaded to the instrument directly from the SD card. Therefore copy

all the downloaded files to the System directory on the SD card using a suitable card

reader. Insert the SD card into the instrument and power on. To load the files onto the

instrument, start GeoMax Toolkit and navigate to MAIN MENU / APPS / UPDATE. If the

firmware needs upgrading, then install this first by selecting F1. Firmware. Then install

the language file by selecting F2. Language.

Note: Ensure that fully charged batteries are inserted when uploading firmware.

This process can take some time and the power supply must NOT be interrupted during

the loading process. During the update process, it could be that the instrument will

automatically reboot a couple of times.

3.3 LOADING LICENCE KEYS

Some functionality is licence protected and requires the upload of a licence key. To upload

a license key file select MAIN MENU / APPS / UPDATE / F3.Key and select the file for

upload followed by pressing the (F6) OK button.

3.4 CONFIGURATION OF LONG RANGE BLUETOOTH HANDLE

If the optional ZRT82 long range Bluetooth handle was ordered with the Zoom70/90, then

this component needs to be configured before use. Replace the standard instrument

handle with the ZRT82. Swing the antenna into the upright position. To configure the

handle, choose MAIN MENU / SETTINGS / COMM. If the handle is recognized then the

Zoom70/90 Series - 6 -

option “Bluetooth Handle (ZRT82)” should be enabled. Now highlight this option and press

the (F6) OK button.

Your Zoom70/90 instrument is now ready to be used.

3.5 INSTALLING USB DRIVERS FOR THE ZOOM70/90.

The instrument is equipped with a USB connector behind the side-cover. This USB

connection can be used to connect the Zoom90 to a PC and have it detected as a mass

storage device. Having this option is usefull for dragging and dropping files between your

Zoom70/90 and the Dekstop PC. Also these USB drivers will be needed if you want to

make an ActiveSync or Window Mobile Device Center connection to install 3rd party

software onto the unit.

To install the drivers, do the following:

1) With your Internet browser, navigate to the GeoMax download page.

2) Download the Zoom70/90 USB drivers.

3) Make sure the Zoom70/90 is not connected to the PC

4) Run the SetupZoom70_90_USB_xx.EXE

Zoom70/90 Series - 7 -

5) Follow the instructions on the screen.

6) When ready, press FINISH.

7) Connect the Zoom70/90 to the PC with a USB cable.

8) Power ON the Zoom70/90

Your PC will then try to recognize the Zoom70/90 and associate the appropriate drivers

with it.

3.6 INSTALLING 3RD PARTY SOFTWARE ONBOARD THE INSTRUMENT.

With the Zoom70/90 it is possible to install applications onto the unit if they were

specifically designed for it. If the received application installer is in .CAB format, it means

that it has to be transferred to the Zoom70/90 first before it can be installed. There are

multiple ways of doing this, but the easiest thing would be to put the .CAB file directly

onto a USB-Stick and put this stick into the Zoom70/90 USB port. Then on the desktop

screen of the Zoom90, double-tap on the MY DEVICE icon. Navigate to the USB stick and

press ENTER. Now highlight the .CAB installer and press ENTER to start the installation.

Follow the instructions provided on the screen.

If the received file is however an .EXE file, then it means that it would need to be run

from the Desktop PC side. Make sure that the instrument is powered ON and connected to

the Desktop PC. (See previous chapter). If the instrument is properly connected, run the

.EXE file and follow the instructions on the screen.

Note: At the present time, the most common applications working with the

GeoMax Zoom70/90 instruments are:

- MicroSurvey FieldGenius (.EXE file = Start from Desktop PC)

- LSE X-Pad (.CAB file = Start from Zoom90)

- Carlson Software SurvCE (.EXE file = Start from Desktop PC).

4PREPARATION OF THE FIELD CONTROLLER

4.1 SETTING UP THE FIELD CONTROLLER

Once the battery is fully charged or while connected to AC power supply, press the power

button of the field controller. Follow the steps of the wizard to setup Windows and the

touch screen. The Windows software on the supplied Getac Handheld is only available in

cable supplied with the Getac as shown below.

The device drivers will now automatically be installed. If the Windows Found New
