Deleting Haul Cycle Records To delete haul cycle records from the main database, press the DELETE button at the bottom of the Pay- load Summary screen. The program will display a summary of the records from the displayed query. To delete a record, select one at a time and press the DELETE button.

Pressing the DELETE ALL button will select all the records from the current query and delete them. 2. From the payload summary screen, press the EXPORT button and select TO ZIP. 3. The program will ask for a filename and loca- tion. Importing Data This import function allows the data from one laptop to be transferred to another computer. This can be useful when a service laptop is used to download multiple machines and transfer the data to a central computer for analysis. This can also be used to copy haul data from a particular truck from a diskette into a database for analysis. NOTE: There is no recovery for records that have been deleted from the main database.
It is highly recommended that all records be exported and archived in a compressed file format for future reference before being deleted. To import data, press the IMPORT button at the bot- tom of the Payload Summary screen. The program will ask for a .zip file to import, locate the file and press OPEN. The program will only import .zip files created by another computer running the PDM Soft- ware.
