TDS Ranger data collector won't connect without a serial port?
I recently completed a big job using my old TDS Ranger (built in 2000), and I find myself unable to connect the Ranger to my current computer. Despite the fact that I have serial to USB cables, the computer won't recognize a device on the port, and the Ranger won't recognize the computer.Any ideas? Thanks so muchĀ

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 everyone Best of the new year to you and your families.

Hello everyone. I have decided to pick up my surveying skills again. I have been doing a lot of GIS work and put my surveying on the back burner. I have AutoCAD Civil 3D but now I need to learn how to use TDS Foresight DXM and Survey Pro. Anyone out there familiar with the two? I need your help just to get me started.
You can email me at [email protected]
Thank you.
Hello,
I'm using a Ranger data collector with Survey Pro software and Nikon total station.I am new to this company and this companys equipment although I have been using Survey Pro for awhile. My new supervisor mentioned that when data is downloaded they receive the distances in slope distance which they then convert to horizontal distances and asked me to look into this.They would like the data inĀ horizontal right off.Ā Could anyone tell me if there is a setting that effects this situation? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Paul
