Situation: PocketPC crashed in the process of importing data from the DistoX. Marco Corvi's TopoDroid includes a utility which is able to dump data from the DistoX's memory.
TopoDroid 2.0.1 has some undocumented distox memory functions.
quick intro to read old data:
tap the "disto" button tap the "sdcard" button turn distox on tap "read" to get the buffer cursor(s) [not necessary but gives you a hint about what to write next] write the range in the boxes besides "dump", eg. "dump" "31" "40" tap "dump".
main tags: D data, M magn., G gravity
BIG WARNING: “reset” turns the data on for retransmission. (ok it is a dangerous feature … will add a confirm dialog :) )
NOTE: memory addresses range from 0 to 4000
ANOTHER NOTE: read a little chunk of memory at at time; and do not let your Disto switch off in the process.
Another utility:
