I am having problems with finding out how to change prism constants in surv ce 4
I am using a trimble 5603 in robotic mode.
I have it connected through the georadio.
My problem is how to change the prism constant.. I sometimes use standard round prism as backsights. Also I don't know what offset my standard prism is set to...
Should be 2mm for my 360 target... I cannot find where this is shown.
My trimble acu running survey controller software has lots of options for this..
Can anyonE explain what I am missing?
Thanks
EQUIP > 1. TOTAL STATION > SETTINGS TAB > FS TARGET / BS TARGET
The tool icon lets you set it up and the dropdown has standard targets already loaded.
I have looked in that menu. The only options in the dropdown list are "prism" and "refectorless".
Nothing to set different offsets etc...
Do you have an option like above?
Edit,
I now see what you are saying. Good question

Resurrecting this question.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem.
Surely there must be a way to set the constants for different prisms.
The standard rmt prisms have different offsets so someone must have had this come up before. Looks like Survce is useless with trimble 5600 instruments...
What software do most of you use with these robots?
