Thanks for posting these videos, I have experience with trimble but the company I work for went with Stonex receivers so I really appreciate you taking the time to share this!

We have just started capturing as-built data off our dozer. You need to create a master grid file and import it into your head unit. We create a master grid file for our projects in Topcon 3D Office (Free version). From your desk top, export your control points as a .pt3 file. Import that .pt3 file into 3D office. Once in 3d Office go to the ribbon at the top and go to Grid - Create new Grid - From selection rectangle. Make the window around your control points much larger than the control points. Once you build the grid file to to the ribbon at the top. Go to Grid - Export Current Grid - to .gd3 file. This will give you the grid you need to upload into the head unit of the dozer. Once you import your grid file then you should see it in the window of your head unit. From there you can export your asbuilt information. It doesnt make much sense but it works.

The base coordinates is not stationary it keeps changing, even after site calibration

How can I get the base to broadcast with the exact coordinates I feed in with?

What kind of base pole is that?

Can I go higher than 1w is magnet or do I have to change the radio type etc. I’m ci for table using the system for site work but I haven’t ever messed with the radio settings much and want to know what’s best and all my options.

Hello please How do i send you a message? I wanted to get the download link for Office 3D, i cant find the download anywhere.

I haven’t tried this yet but I’m wondering let’s say I did exactly like you did with 3 points. I burn them in in state plane and then go back and localized them. Now I’m localized. Let’s say I decide I need more “check points”. I go and burn in another 3 points in state plane. Now do I have to go back and localize those 3 to get my residuals, or do the previous 3 automatically make the new points localized because with gps you need at least 3 points to at least get started?

Seems simple enough. Thanks we’re so busy; my boss doesn’t really have time to show me.

Hey man I’ve set up my gps at a new job site with no design right and I’ve set everything up right by somehow my elevation on my gps is super off to what the surveyor stakes say how can I fix that or do you think is wrong with it?

I just showed up to a fresh jobsite today and all of the engineer's control points on the plans are gone. I tried to do this localization method and my elevations are way off. I know I should be sitting around +10.00' +\- but it's showing -80.00' +\-. I've already called to have new control set but was curious if you have run into this before and know of a simple mistake I might be making..? Thanks for the videos.

😊

Thank you for your content, seriously a big help man.

How do you know what projection data to select?

Hello, i am new in this Business. I have an question. We have an 3DMC Volvo excavator in our compony. And i hav an DWG file with the Lines and Points. Can i Even Transform this DWG file in something so we can use the Lines for that project at the Excavator ?

Thank you this was helpful

do you have to manually type the control in or could you import the Trimble .dc file?

your content is gold to me

I installed Office 3D on my Windows laptop. However when I try to import a .dwg file from all the menu selections that do it, it does nothing. I am able to view the .dwg file using the the Autodesk Viewer so I know the file is good, although the Viewer app says that the .dwg file wasn't created by Autocad. Any suggestions?

I got a question for you bud. So at work I use a Trimble SPS930 (basically an s9). I mostly do linework when I do a topo, that’s what my chief likes to send the engineers. In Trimble Siteworks you can create a line, stop topoing and then if I want I can hold on the line and continue that line instead of starting a new line. It’s good for topoing too of curb and gutter. So I’ll take my first shot on the gutter, walk up 20 feet take another shot. Then I walk back to where I started and take a shot on the curb on a new line, walk up 20 feet take a a shot on curb again, walk up take a shot on curb again then come down to the gutter, hold down the line I shot of the gutter continue that line take a shot, walk up 20 feet, take a shot of the gutter. Rod then goes on the curb, hold down the top of curb line I was shooting. Continue that line. Take a shot on curb. Walk 20 feet take shot on curb rod goes to gutter. Hold down the line work of the gutter topo, continue line, take a shot walk 20 feet take shot at gutter. Rod then goes on curb select that top of curb line to continue and then take a shot. And we will do that for our whole run. I get it’s faster than doing a topo of the whole curb line and then once down walk back down to topo gutter. Is there any way to do a topo on pocket 3D where I can start a topo line and then go back to it to continue it or do I need to start a new line once I stop topoing that line?

Can you do a actual walk through of the export to a flashdrive

I tried this today, having to create a v-ditch off the design surface, but I kept getting error like my gps base wasnt talking. Do I need to connect data collector to base and start a new site? I'm very new to all of this, obviously

Is there any way of getting yardages of stockpiles off of topos by doing this???

Can I get that link?

Thanks for this. Do you know If the part #70406D the same for the new 2.0 topcon machines? We have a D71PXi 2.0 machine and trying to hook it up to Trible 900hrz base...Thanks in advance...

Can you turn that into a 3D model in the field?

Can I have few ttm files where to download and do we have free software to open the ttm files and others Could you please provide me some ttm files with the same location.

Can you set the base receiver to collect static survey data with this software?

How do you know what channel to be on?

Can you do a video on how to take an asbuilt file into a pdf file.

Thanks!

can you help me

how to calibration camera pc 1250

hi

How do you get the indicator lights?

The elevations it measures, is it in reference to some official datum point such as the australian height datum?

Thank you very much

Just curious, Are you a dealer or an end user?

Two point tips to tie in and sort of average out across contour lines.

How do you get those light on the side to work because I run a D61 but the lights on the side do not work

I use Trimble at work but i personally own a top rover with pocket 3d. I tried to take all my Trimble files and convert them but when I select the dxf from my thumb drive nothing shows up in Office3D. A lot of the times i get “import failed: invalid format”. Why isn’t my lines work or surface showing up when i bring them into 3D-Office?

gatta fix the volume on your mic brother

nice video man...I have a question i tried setting up my base on a control file I go through all the steps but then at the end it says base position error do you know what might be causing that?

Legend, didn’t realize I had to hold the control after raising the blade.

When I active my automatics the blade jumps up and down several inches. The blade doesn’t stay at the same elevation consistently. Is this normal? What can I do to fix this?

Could you share the LSS toolkit in google drive? can't download

I've been using this method for awhile now and just now had a client who went to import the tp3 into their dozer. The dozer will load it up but then when it gets into the grading areas it freezes and shuts down. Any clue why this would be happening?

Is it possible to create a flat plane surface(with the machine as you did in the video), without having the site calibrated and having the base station setup? You mentioned something about"just being connected to a network" could you elaborate on exactly what that means. My intention is to use the flat plane feature before the site is "setup" if that is possible.

How on older model

I usually create 2 text files in Pocket 3d, a PNEED and a LLH one. Export those and import the PNEED to TBC, setting it to survey quality, I make sure my units are correct then I drag and drop the LLH file into TBC, rename the points by adding a letter “A” to them, then I perform a site calibration and match the grid and global coordinates. I make sure my residuals match with localization I have in 3D Office and I’m good to go and ready to export my files.
