Receiving a Continuous Survey from the Allegro

Information in this section explains how to receive an Allegro CeCi close interval survey file in PCS Axis.

Important: For data to transfer properly, the name of the pipeline entered in the Segment field of the Allegro CeCi survey file must match the ROW Code in PCS Axis. The survey name entered in the Run field of the CeCi survey file is used to create a survey folder in PCS Axis (Data Entry > Survey Folder Maintenance). See the Allegro MX User Guide for more information about setting properties in a CeCi survey file.

Complete the following steps:

1	Verify the Allegro is connected to your computer. If needed, refer to the Allegro User Guide for information about how to connect the device.

2	Click Field Computer > Receive to open the Field Computer Receive Data window.

3	Click Receive Cis Data, then click the Allegro option.

Note: CIS is an acronym for Close Interval Survey.

5	Select the close interval (CI) survey files you want to transfer from the Allegro. Click the check box for one or more survey files listed in the Field Computer Receive Data window.

A check mark inside a check box indicates a selection. To remove a selection, clear the check mark by clicking the check box again
