Is anyone having any success using Trimble Business Center? I can't seem to get the routines to work like they do on the Tech Tips. Specifically making a background map for my TSC3. Sometimes TBC makes the .jpg amd .jpw files, sometimes it doesn't. the ones it does make the TSC3 doesn't see them when I try to add the to the active map. You look using File Explorer and they are there. Computers are sure frustrating.

There are some issues around the standard windows functions for scaling and display of jpg files.

It helps if you cut the image down to just the area of interest.

But mostly we gave up on that and just use dxf files.

I find it much easier to export search points to Google Earth and open the kmz on my phone.
