System concept, continued
Survey data is generally stored on a
SRAM or ATA flash card
corresponding to PCMCIA standards
(referred to here as a PC card). The
data are stored in MS-DOS file
format. Data is exchanged with a PC
through either a PCMCIA drive on
that PC, or an OMNI drive (optional),
or the serial interface (cable link
between instrument and PC).
The Leica Survey Office software
supplied with the instrument includes
a program for transferring data
across the serial interface.
Instead of using the PC card, the
data can be output in GSI format at
the serial data interface.
When data is transferred
across the serial interface
for storage in an external PC, no data
from the applications is output in the
report file. Fixed-point coordinates
can be read only from the PC card.
GeoBasic
The GeoBasic development
environment permits the professional
development of additional
applications for the TPS1100.
