I am thinking of buying additional apps for my Leica Captivate. I tried looking everywhere (I found nothing) about feature difference between the following apps:
1. Quick Setup
2. Auto Setup
3. Resection Sets
Anybody can help me with the link? Any experience using the three apps?
Thank you.

My world has brief descriptions of the apps
Quick Setup
Allows a Setup of the Total Station with minimal steps, without entering coordinates.
Auto Setup
Searches and measures to all prisms that can be found without previous identification of each measured point. A resection is calculated from the measurements taken.
Resection Sets
This application allows to setup the instrument based on a resection calculated from measurement sets to several targets. It provides a pre- processing option to detect outliers.
I've looked through the technical manual, but did not find information on those apps
Looking at the V7 release notes there are a few things shown
Extension to the Auto Setup app
The Auto Setup app allows automatically setting up the instrument using a resection. Using PowerSearch, it scans the surrounding area for prisms and calculates a resection setup for the Total Station, by matching the found prisms to control point coordinates from a Control job.
The app has been extended for Leica Captivate v7.0
An additional PowerSearch routine to find the surrounding prisms has been added to allow prisms at different heights to be found more reliably. The new PowerSearch-Multiband routine turns the instrument around its axis 3 times
and searches for prisms at different vertical angles. This increases the success of finding prisms when they are installed at noticeably varying heights.
Further, the app now allows all points used to calculate the free station setup to automatically be added to the PowerSearch filter after the setup is finished.
This way when measuring and staking points, surrounding control points will not interfere when searching for the actual working prism after a loss of lock.
Hope that helps
