When synchronizing with mobileTMA, click the Data Sync icon to open the Data Sync main window with options to Start Data Sync, view the Data Sync Log, View Error Log, and Clear Error Log.
During Data Sync, the handheld device stores downloaded information about each of the items checked on the Download Options window. Each item of data transferred is shown as a line entry on the window. Each line entry begins with a symbol to indicate upload or download.
Downloaded items are identified by a red arrow arcing downward:
Uploaded items are identified by a blue arrow arcing upward:
Uploaded and downloaded work orders display both symbols:
If your mobileTMA settings include automatic wireless downloads, new work orders are downloaded and some of the changes and new records are uploaded from the handheld device. This is true as long as you are within wireless range.
If you automatically update mobileTMA data every 30 minutes, any new area, equipment, vehicle, and similar records or readings are uploaded every half hour as well. They are transferred from mobileTMA to the WebTMA server and are no longer visible on the handheld device.
