Hello Fellow Surveyors,
I'm again working at another company tasked with creating a survey environment using Survey Pro field software and Civil 3D 2014 office software. I'm ok with the C3D but have used Survey Controller for the past few years. Can someone please step me through the process of loading a list of Field codes into a TDS Ranger using Survey Pro and a Trimble TSC3 using Survey Pro?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank You, Paul

Hello Fellow Surveyors,
I found the answer to this question....In TDS Ranger data collectors...
Go To Files/Descriptions
Check Box for Use Description Code File then enter a txt. file of your codes
example BC__BACK OF CURB
GT__GUTTER
Check Box for Use Description List File then enter a txt. file of your codes
Check Boxes for Load Descriptions List from Job file
Add new Descriptions to Descriptions to Description List
Show Description list automatically
The same elections for the TSC3 under Settings Descriptions
To generate linework in your map as you survey you must have a .fxl file loaded to the Auto line work setting.
To create a .fxl file you must have the office support file such as TBC or SPSO, then use a Feature Definition Manager to create your .fxl file complete with Codes,Symbols and attributes.
For Survey Controller in TSC2s and TSC3s you need to create a .fxl file in TBC and hard wire to data collectors from your desk top.
If anyone can add anything it would be appreciated.

Paul
