Topcon Hiperlite+

Hi, i an new to the forums and have finally found some place I can try and get help. I was laying out some structures yesterday and my Palm indicated that it had lost connectivity with my base. Upon going back to the base i soon found out that it was the rover and it was no longer displayed on my bluetooth connections. The Rx led on the far right no longer flashes. Is there a way to reactivate this without having to call Bunce and have them walk me through resetting com ports through USB?

Are you using TopSurv?

Plug in to insure the system is running property and Bluetooth is the problem.

It sounds like the battery died and needs recharging.
:-O

more often than not with the Topcon is that you need to reconnect the radio through the data collector. it's an easy fix in TopSurv.

You see i wish I had all the components necessary before my colleague who handed it down to me took it into his own hands. I could've loaded the CDU program and tried to troubleshoot this. He called Topcon and they said to have it sent in. An $800 pop that I am put on.
