Static baseline processing failure
We used to do a lot of static GNSS work, but not much lately, so I’m a bit rusty. Last week I had a job that wasn’t conducive to RTK, so we did some static sessions using 3 receivers (R8-2, R8-3, & R8-4). When I bring the data into (my admittedly old version 2.40) of Trimble Business Center, everything comes in normally, I get the normal screen where you verify the antenna type & height, etc., and it displays the unprocessed baselines on the screen just fine. When I try to process, they all fail, and it doesn’t give me any explanation why.
The site is fairly close to a CORS site, so I brought data in from it and another about 50 miles away just to see what it would do. With that data in the project, it processes the baseline between the CORS sites, and the baselines to one of my stations. The data it does process looks just fine, but it won’t process the rest of it. I don’t recall which receiver it was that it would process against, and I’m not at the office at the moment so I don’t know if it’s a most recent firmware issue or something else.
Has anyone else experienced this?

I have had that happen with RINEX files with no NAV file. You might try converting them to RINEX then import the RINEX and NAV file into TBC and see if they will then process.

Can you upload the files?
-
Use the Trimble RINEX converter to make the files. The input is your receiver files. Files with extension .19o are the RINEX and .19n are the nav files. Drag and drop those into TBC. I don’t know if it’ll work but it’s worth a try.

I seriously doubt if TBC 2.40 recognizes those antenna types.
-
Don’t all versions of TBC share the same antenna file? I know that I have repeatedly updated my versions of TBC to get newer antenna definitions long after the version had been superseded. As I recall, Trimble refers to it as a configuration update, and it’s a no-cost download.

Yes you can run the configuration update, but you have to know to do so. Current versions will update it if you check for updates through the software but I don’t know about a version that old.

Sent the files to trimble, they say TBC 5.00 processes them just fine, so guess what I just bought and am installing right now…

Don’t feel too bad, same basic thing happened to me.
