Amazing mix of technical knowledge, making it "not" boring :-) and still showing it in a practical way, how it is meant to be done in the field! Keep up the great video work Robert!
Bula Vinaka Robert I used Integrated Surveying for the first time yesterday and Thank you very much for your instructions, followed it to the latter and i saved about 2 to 3 hours of work. Thank you again. Maika Auckland, NZ
I can't believe you were fixed in them woods. I run an SPS986 and can never seem to get fixed when laying out clearing and grubbing limits. I always assumed the R10 and SPS986 were similar . guess not. Great video. Keep up the good work!
Robert, thank you for posting this. This is really cool, really good information. I am the program coordinator for a survey technician program at a small community college and we have an S3 robotic with only the 360 prism, it is not active tracking. Say, that last corner seemed a bit at an angle, looks like the land owner did his own "adjustment" LOL. Thanks again for sharing this, you've got me subscribed.
LOL I cant believe you got a fix in the bush. Great video. This is the 2nd video I seen were u had low battery, u sure like to live dangerously my friend :).
Robert, first of all thanks for the video. I was trying to create the survey style for the integrated survey, I can select the survey style for Conventional, but I do not have the option to select the GNSS survey style, It says "No survey style found", however I have multiple GNSS survey styles available on my TSC7. Do I need to start an RTK base first? I will appreciate your feedback. Thanks!
The R10 does not give a fixed/float solution. It just gives you residuals. So calming it’s fixed is not an accurate statement. But good video. I have not done much with integrated but would like to do more.
Thanks and you are right! Although you are getting in the weeds! I have been using GPS since mid 90’s and old habits like “it’s fixed” are hard to break. Thanks for pointing that out!
Awesome! For me, angles and ground distances is what we submit to our Lands Department. So is that "fix scale 1" at 10:25, the coordinates system setting what I need? If so, where do I set this? Coordinate system?
Great vid Robert. One questions, when you connected to your RTK, did you have a GPS base setup someplace or did you survey with a CORS network/wifi? I've encountered sites where I need to shoot a pin (or multiple) and have traditionally setup a control point (IRS w/Cap/Hub&Tack etc.) via CORS network/wifi hotspot, then setup an R10 base over the point....then have set outside control points to the pin I'm looking to survey. Would have to setup a conventional Total Station on my outside/non-base control point to survey in the Pin... (very time consuming and a lot of effort for one shot) You make this look pretty easy with this GPS/S5 setup & resect. Thanks for any input and be safe out there.
@@SurveyingWithRobert , thank you for your input sir. The firm I work for just acquired an S5, I look forward to using this method to make life easier for those tricky/difficult shots.
When doing an integrated survey style, it allows you to input a gps antenna height offset since the gps is sitting on top of the prism and the prism is at the correct height. However I'm not seeing where trimble access allows you to input a gps offset when in any other survey style even though I like to run an entire day with the gps on the prism. Part of the day I would run integrated, but not all day and I wouldn't want to keep switching rods configurations. Is there a way to do that in Access or is there some other type of work around?
Robert at 12:20 you mentioned pushing a button to switch from GPS to the TS. I've been following your set up procedure but I'm struggling to switch from GNSS to reflector-less. Can you tell me how to quickly switch between the two methods please. Top videos please keep them coming.
From my memory, there's a bar at the bottom of the screen showing either RTK fixed and ENZ accuracy or Angles and distances, click on the bar and you can toggle between both? Then measure
Hello Robert, Really enjoying the videos we have been able to see so far. We would like to know how you setup your settings within the controller (TSC3) to obtain the fixed scale to 1 when you show the resection results. Our intention is to be able to export the information in a csv file and inserted into Civil 3D and have our distances and linework shown in ground and not grid, as of now when utilizing the Integrated Survey method they are shown in Grid when our csv files are inserted into Civil 3D. Would obtaining a fixed scale to 1 provide this? Will appreciate your response.
Will IS work with different data collectors IE Ranger 3 with Survey Pro or is it strictly a Trimble data collector deal. I run a S5 with a Spectra Precision Ranger 3.
Hi, In a normal resection geometry is important such as keep long backsights and equilateral triangles. Is this the case with integrated surveying? I would be wary of measuring short bacsights?
True but if your not going any farther than your for site then you should be good. Also you can get better accuracy using more than 2 points for your resection to improve geometry on your solution
@@SurveyingWithRobert Thanks Robert, I do subsidence monitoring on a landfill with a Trimble 5605!! I have to do 3 point resections using reflectorless mode.
Good day Robert, I have a question for u. I have a new S7 2" DR+ and TCS3 (with internal radio). What kind of range can I get between the TS and Data collector before I lose radio link? At 30' - 50' the connection goes in and out. 60' I lose radio connection all together. I noticed in this video you got 80' but with a S5 & TSC7.
I figured it had a much better range, and the antennas are 5 days old. The one thing I didn't do which I am about to go check is changing the radio settings. I had to do that with the TDL 450H on the weekend. there was some local radio inference, I believe this is the case.
@@SurveyingWithRobert geez 7650 possible radio configs (30 CH's;255Net ID's) lol. I fired up the T10 I got for the sx10 and tried using that, no luck. Put the TSC3 antenna on the S7 and have no radio problems. The Trimble dealer (Cansel) here in western canada suspects it was a faulty antenna and a replacement is on the way. Thank You for ur time Rob and take care my friend.
I measure track and field, throwing events. So I measure center of the ring my A mark and the rest of the throws are in the sector. Every time I measure in the sector it gives me mark missing ling back to center of ring AB,AC,AD,AE and so on. I checked congo inversion and there is to much stuff I only need h. dist.

Michael O'Pry don’t tell anyone but I drove that rebar at the foot of a tree for an example, don’t tell anyone! 😃
Surveying With Robert secret's safe with me, just ask William at NEI, they are right down the street from me in Lafayette.
Michael O'Pry awesome!!
Great video, as usual very instructive and clearly explained.
Awesome great videos.Thank you so much
LOL I cant believe you got a fix in the bush. Great video. This is the 2nd video I seen were u had low battery, u sure like to live dangerously my friend :).
Lol, honestly it’s because it took me several tries to get it right. Ran the battery down during the several takes!!
Incorrect....see above comment from Tony

@@SurveyingWithRobert Come on man, Tony is not "in the woods," he is simply just correct, accept it and move on :)
Im doing this with a 5605 and R10 mounted on an RMT!!!
did the same back in the day. Thats awesome!
Awesome great video thanks
Humberto Vazquez glad you like it.
Robert you are the man!
Thanks dude!!

Greg Pucher I used a base just because of no cellular service in the area. This example works just as well from a network.

With what other software RTS can be used (instead of Field Link)?
Pack it in call it 10.

How much did the equipment cost?

Sounds like a grid to ground video in Access. If your points you resect from are grid then just going to scale one really doesn’t work.
Nice! What’s a traverse anymore? Is that an R10-2?
R10-1
Will IS work with different data collectors IE Ranger 3 with Survey Pro or is it strictly a Trimble data collector deal. I run a S5 with a Spectra Precision Ranger 3.
RagingRudyTV about a year or two ago SP came out with IS. I don’t think it’s as clean as Trimble but it works.

You should get 1500 foot in the open and 400-600 feet in the woods. Replace the antennas first if you are trouble shooting.
I figured it had a much better range, and the antennas are 5 days old. The one thing I didn't do which I am about to go check is changing the radio settings. I had to do that with the TDL 450H on the weekend. there was some local radio inference, I believe this is the case.
Jeff Johnstone could be but 5 days old sounds like a bigger issue to me. Try changing the channels but I suspect it will need to go to the shop.

Thank You for ur time Rob and take care my friend.
With the S5 can you show us how to do Missing Line or I think Trimble calls it a inversion. Need to know how to get distance between two points
Doug Parsons I think what you are looking for is under cogo and inverse. What are you trying to do?
I measure track and field, throwing events. So I measure center of the ring my A mark and the rest of the throws are in the sector. Every time I measure in the sector it gives me mark missing ling back to center of ring AB,AC,AD,AE and so on. I checked congo inversion and there is to much stuff I only need h. dist.
I'm using a sokkia sx now but just bought a Trimble to play with.
Good
Massimiliano Fantino thank you!
