ADU-08e Quick Remarks
============================
GPS : Stationary and Moving Mode
----------------------------------
Stationary is the default for MT. The spatial resolution is *definitively* increased by averaging the position to to ± 2m. |br|
Especially when you are beside a building where the view is strongly limited.
Moving mode is for measuring many HF sites with the :ref:`SHFT-02e ` and the system is *not* rebooted when moving from site to site. |br|
When measuring in open space the positioning is excellent; in situations as above the resolution decreases to ± 6 to 8m worst case.
In terms of timing we couldn't measure any difference.

Power
-------
Quickly pressing the power switches on or wakes the ADU.
Long press when running opens the menu for shutdown.
Connecting the Ethernet cable will **wake** the ADU within **32 seconds**.
Otherwise: wake the system by pressing the power button.
Ethernet / Samba
---------------------
With the 10GB Ethernet (you "CAT 5e" or better ("CAT 6", "CAT 7") ) the ADU provides a download speed up to 100 MB/s. |br|
If you have a wrong / bad cable you may get slow 300 kB/s.
High Pass Filter ("HF HP 500Hz")
-----------------------------------
This filter suppresses frequencies below 500 Hz and makes clearer AMT data. |br|
By default this filter is disabled, because with 64kHz -> 16 kHz you easily get results for less than 500 Hz.
.. index::
single: Radio Filter
Radio Filter ("LF RF1", "LF RF2")
------------------------------------
RF2: for less than 1500 Ohm *contact resistance* (default) |br|
RF1: for more than 1500 Ohm *contact resistance* |br|
Use RF2 & DIV-1 for **buffer** cables! |br|
Use RF1 & DIV-8 for **MFS-XXX** and **SHFT** coils
The mobile App will detect the settings automatically. |br|
The Joblist editor **not** (status 2018 May) |br|
WebInferface: manual. |br|
Chopper
-----------
Chopper is ON for frequencies 512 Hz and lower. |br|
Chopper is OFF for frequencies 1024 Hz higher. |br|
Do not change it unless you know what you are doing. |br|
HINT: when down filtering the atsheader (and XML) will keep the chopper settings for sure. In addition the header
entry "orig_sample_freq" or binary OrigSampleFreq will keep the original sample frequency; that gives a hint later
why chopper is off but file shows 128 Hz for example. Ref.: :ref:`ats header `
No Grounding - No Data
-------------------------
There is **NO** chance to recover the data in this case. |br|
Hence: if you use a small metal stick for grounding, make sure that the stick sits tight in the ground.
Normally after hammering a few times the stick sits deep but *loose* in the ground.
Site Configuration
---------------------
As long as you do not press "new session" the site configuration is **persistent** in the WebInterface and the **mobile app**.
As long you use the mobile app the should be no need to clear the data by "new session". you will only do this when you scrambled up the system. |br|
If the site config in the mobile app is given, you will find this later as comments in your EDI files! |br|
For the upcoming versions of ProcMT all Unicode characters should be allowed (Russian, Japanese, Chinese, German).

Network and Download
-------------------------
Some laptops do not get the download speed as you want it.
The cable interface should deliver a performance of 20 MB/s. That is the best.
On WiFi you expect 3 MB/s.
If all is **too slow** you have two options: |br|
A ) default
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
on the panel go to |br|
**home->USB** |br|
insert a USB drive (e.g. at the outside of the ADU is a second USB connector, so WiFi can stay ON). |br|
**USB Device Connected!** |br|
**CP-TS** |br|
... wait .. |br|
**Eject** |br|
(if you are not fast enough the drive will be re-mounted - but no problem *pull it*!) |br|
Average speed is 12 MB/s writing to the USB pen drive. |br|
Advantage: the USB pen drive can be read / write on all computers because they have FAT system. These USB drives are typical equal/less 32GB. If you have 64GB
this may contain a different file system.
B ) Linux / MAC users
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
can use the SD card directly
**home->status** |br|
**jobs** |br|
**EJ-SD** |br|
copy the data with your card reader from the ext4 formatted SD card |br|
**In-SD**
Average speed is 140 MB/s copying to you laptop.
C ) Windows 10, with ext2fsd
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
There is a *driver* called **Ext2Fsd** - Ext2 File System Driver for Windows 0.69 |br|
(watch out that the version must be >= 0.69). Link is here for example `Ext2Fsd `_
This can be installed a executable on demand or as a *driver* - you want install as driver (reboot required). |br|
The expected speed is 40 MB/s.
**64 GB is NOT SUPPORTED, 32 GB is the maximum for this driver** That is also the maximum size of the internal card.
**HINT** Take a simple card reader - and not a one who is "intelligent". Here Transcend TS-RDF5K (10 EUR).

External USB
-----------------
Most USB drives **do not work at all**. They are not made for field usage. |br|
Much better are SSD drives; they are working reliable. Shown on the picture a self made with M2.SATA interface and a Samsung SSD inside

Short Comparison with ADU-07e
----------------------------------
The ADU-08e realizes all improvements we made with the former system and desired features.
* less **power consumption** (down to 6.5 W in LF mode, instead of 9.5 W)
* **GPS** with ten times higher sensitivty (works in steep valleys and under trees)
* include **Galileo and Glonass / Beidou 北斗** for having always satellites in view
* fully operational my **tablet and mobile phone** with the Android :ref:`App `
* **32 bit** ADC for LF mode - better performance especially when the E-field is drifting
* optional **2 channel** :ref:`ADU ` for EMAP (no cable connection between center and satellite stations needed)
* https server integrated for save operation across mobile and other networks
* no battery drain when the system shuts down
* 524 kHz sample rates always available ( LF + HF board are now integrated as BB board (broad band) )
In summary we tried to implement all user requests of the past years in order to make the ADU-08e the best system for you.
