Tech Notes Tip
New Features in Trimble Survey Controller
-When in the Map screen of SC 11.32, if you click
 and hold on the “Map” Main Screen Button, you
 have some additional options like turning on/off the
 widescreen and setting up some default zoom
 levels (cool) Alt-W also allows for you to turn on/off
 widescreen.
-The file name in the Trimble Data Directory for
 copying Dial Profiles from one controller to another
 is called dialprofiles.xml.
-Check Target ID to Always if you want to use an
 Active Tracking Technique when using the S6.
-You can also set some tracking delays (instrument
 keep trying to track you while you walk behind
 trees) to either 0 seconds (default) and 1,2, or 3
 seconds.
-Use the SET button in SC basic to elevate the gun
 without have to do a Station Set-up. Only works
 when no station set-up has been defined. Quick,
 Easy, and what everyone that is used to the
 Geodimeter CU wants.
-There are 2 new Description Fields (quick way to
 key in notes) that have to be turned on. The setting
 to turn them on is on the 2^nd page of Properties of
 current job. Can be then attached to points using a
 custom export file format in SC.
-When doing continuous measurements with a TS,
 there is a new setting to set some rod movement
 tolerances to allow the user to do stop and go as
 well as true continuous measurements at the
 same time. When using an S6 or 5600, the track
 light changes to reflect this as well.
-Offsets can be edited later in Review Current job.
 New offset using 3 directions at once.
