I am having some lag annoyances with the Trimble GeoXH 6000 running TerraSync 5.70 in the field lately. Satellite fixes are as expected, but the unit is hanging up a lot when I am entering text attributes into a text field while logging positions of existing features (updating position-less features). I think the unit is getting bogged down trying to recall and list all of the “predictive text” for each character I enter. I will often type in a string of characters and not get any visual feedback for up to a minute, during which time the screen is unresponsive and even the positions logged counter hangs and then catches back up after all the characters have appeared in the text field. As this has gotten worse I wonder if there is a predictive text cache that is getting full that I can empty periodically. Or even just turn that feature off. Maybe a Windows Mobile (version 6.5 Professional) setting? Maybe there is a more macro memory dump I need to be doing as all of the GUI responses seem to have slowed down, predictive text just being the slowest.
