The LTG31 includes Polycorder program GPS31 which is designed for the Polycorder 600 field data logger. The GPS31 code is embedded in the LTG31 and can be uploaded to the Polycorder. The Polycorder program GPS31 allows for the display of data. While displaying, the GPS31 converts each reading to an ASCII string and outputs data to an external logging device (e.g. GPS field computer). The GPS31 can co-exist in the Polycorder together with the Geonics standard data acquisition program EM31. Uploading GPS31 to the Polycorder will not affect the performance of the EM31 program, nor will it damage the stored data file. This allows the user to have both programs in one Polycorder and to use the standard Geonics data acquisition program in areas where the GPS signal is not available without the necessity of reloading the data logger.

The LTG software family contains two programs: LTG31 for EM31 and LTG38 for EM38. These programs make use of logging capabilities of the Trimble PathFinder ProXRS system to log Geonics EM31 or EM38 data. This approach allows the user of EM31 or EM38 equipped with Polycorder 600 to have electromagnetic readings, as well as GPS positions in one data file. This file can be exported by GPS data processing software to a wide variety of formats used by GIS and contouring packages.
