Need Robotic Data Collector

Post by Ben Lund »

I'm looking for an inexpensive option to robotically control a Geodimeter 600. Anyone out there selling something that could help me out?

If you do not get a response here try EBAY. I am not surve which is the least expensive a sokkia or a ranger 300. Anything any good is probably going to be north of $500.
good luck

that you are not satisfied with the "stock" removable faceplate/data collector to collect data and control the shooter in the robotic mode.

What's your definition of "inexpensive" in this case?

There's currently (12/30/10) a TSCe with SCv10.72 on eBay from a reputable seller with a Buy-It-Now price of $235.00. You'd have to pick up a charger and cables, but the cost for those would be nominal. It doesn't get much more inexpensive than that.

See http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 0509781683 for details.

Thank you to everyone who posted. I'm now trying to adjust the display of the faceplate/data collector. It is very dark and even when I adjust the Contrast to the lowest settings, it is hard to read. I do this by going MNU-1-3.

Is there a way to reset the faceplate to factory defaults or something? Thanks for your help!
