  Is your profile correct? You say you are a Survey director with 26 years experience?
  You can't possibly need a guide to setting up stations and backsights.
  Is this a real question?

    Fair question Dean.!
    I have had a long and successful career carrying out measured building surveys so have had no real need for the topo side. The main reason I joined the site was for help and advice in this area.

      Ian,

      I haven't used on-board data collection in many moons, but I hope the attached .pdf helps.  I prefer almost any data collector (DC) to running on-board, especially Leica's on-board setup.  You can purchase awesome DC's for less than $3000 anymore; cheap compared to the headaches of collecting on your TS.

      Here is a link to the online manual:  Leica TS 06 Manual

      I am always happy to help other surveyors, no matter their level of experience.  However, you did kinda open up a can of worms; if you really do have 26 years experience, you might want to be careful on what you post/ask.  Total Station setup really should be like falling of a log to a seasoned professional....

      I haven't used onboard data collection in many moons, but I hope the attached .pdf helps.

      Cheers,

  No offense, Ian. But I can do that work in my sleep. But, do you think I can find a job?! Hell no!

    Can't find work?  Wow - not so much about WHAT you know as WHO you know....  Tons of work in the US for qualified surveyors, especially offshore!  If you need some connections over here, I might be able to help!

  Yikes!  Cheers on your 20 years, but you need a mentor!!!  Cheers on Leica Total stations, as well - best in the business!!!!!!

  I'm training another carpenter on-site and just wrote instructions for a Leica TS12 Robot, based on running MicroSurvey Field Genius on a field tablet.  Are you running the TS06 on-board or with a data collector?

    This is the response I was looking for, cheers Steven.! I am running on-board, then through LSS into AutoCAD.
    A copy of the instructions would be fantastic please.
