[. . . ] The Active mode allows more robust target recognition and faster target lock: In-field design You can now create or update designs on the controller in the field without using office software. When creating points in the COGO menu, you can choose to store the point as a stakeout point or as a measured point: When using an FXL Feature Code Library from the Business Center - HCE software and the Advanced Measurement module of the SCS900 software, the point can be stored as a measured surface point or as a topo point. This enables you to calculate points and form surfaces from COGO points and then use them in volume calculations or export the design for machine control purposes. SCS900 Site Controller Software Release Notes 5 Creating an arc from points A new option on the COGO menu enables you to create an arc from three points, or pick two points and then enter a radius: The arc can be stored as a design and reused to stake additional points related to this arc at anytime. Joystick speed setting The SCS900 software now includes additional sliders to the joystick function in the Instrument menu to adjust the turning speed of the instrument: This enables you to control the total station more precisely when trying to aim targets using the joystick or spider keys. 6 SCS900 Site Controller Software Release Notes Improved redraw speed with DXF files The time for reading big background or design maps with DXF files has improved. Complex line work now displays significantly faster after you select the design: Trimble Tablet 2. 4 GHz radio support This version now supports the new Trimble Tablet 2. 4 GHz radio. Availability This version of the SCS900 software will be available at the end of December 2010 in US and UK English. [. . . ]
