TCaliper Features
Cruise data can be input from tally sheets using TCruise's built-in spread sheet interface, or down loaded from a data
recorder. The companion product Timber Cruise for the Haglof Mantax 512kb Computer Caliper (TCaliper),
downloads ascii formatted cruise data that can be imported directly into TCruise, or another cruise program.
TCaliper can store up to four cruises before a download is necessary.
TCaliper's data input screens are organized the same as TCruise's internal spreadsheet data editor interface to make
data entry and downloading a snap. Species codes, and product codes are downloadable to TCaliper from TCruise's species,
and product code export facility so no code translations are required.
The Haglof Mantax Computer Caliper is a very efficient way of collecting data because it combines the primary measuring
instrument with the data recorder. When used in conjunction with a Haglof DME for distance measurement, one person can
cruise a tract more efficiently than a two person crew. After doing a cruise with a Haglof computer caliper, you will want
to throw away your tally sheets, or data recorder. Visit Haglof's www site for additional information.
TCruise will not allow the importation of files created by TCaliper, unless TCaliper is registered.
