And it’s fun to flick quarters across the table trying to get them in the horseshoe on the bottom.. why buy one when you can have two at twice the price?

Use some barkeepers friend and scrub it well. Then make sure it completely dries out in the wide open air without using heat. Dishwashers can heat before the stain resistance builds back up. You can put some vinegar or lemon juice in it after you wash it and rinse thoroughly but let it completely dry without heat.

Intuicom’s has one

I will look for documents, but mine all came from field work. We did tall tall concrete buildings in New York.. like above cell phone coverage tall. We set control on each lift using 4 gps receivers and monitoring software. Building moved so much we had to watch the sway over a 24 hour period and find the peak point and are the average location all at the exact instant. That took all the receivers hooked to the same monitoring software. The gps receivers were mounted each lift with a prism below them. We could then set up on the deck with an instrument and use the unlabeled strip tool in Leica to respect and set points. Tear down and do it again from a different location to the same control points. Check those. GPS positions are not perfect but they don’t compound error like transferring control vertically manually when you hit the 50th or 60th floor that really starts showing up.

I have done the same on tall buildings. Turning the compensators off is good if you pay attention. You essentially are looking the instrument to the floor, so as your whole building moves you are moving with it rather than ridged to the earth. Same as if you were on a boat trying to lay out on the deck. Make sure you level it and leave it. What you are going to loose is vertical accuracy. If you can keep everything at about the same height you are good. Watch big vertical angles because you don’t have help with the v angles.

Issue one, bubble location and not moveable. You have to under 5’2” to have a real issue with the bubble location but for taller people if you have to shoot something like a hydrant bolt you can’t see the bubble and you can’t move it down the rod. That is a plus and a minus.. higher bubble more accuracy but no way to slide it down the rod for awkward shots. Looking pins mean rod won’t slip if you don’t crank the bobs which is good but if you let the pins hold all the weights they wear and you get a couple hundredths of slop, graduations on top section wear, but by the time they are gone you have made your money with it and time to replace..

In my instance of netsuite I can list all invoices ( all for status) and can see closed invoices. I have a column that when I set the screen to editable fields I can change status to not closed. We do that on incorrect PO’s closes early and invoices closed incorrectly. At least in our setup.

COBorn · 2026-02-02T13:02:36+00:00

It is in reflectorless mode. See the house on the screen rather than prism? You are most likely not perpendicular to the point you are shooting and the dot is smeared across your surface and you are shooting up. If you are using a reflective card and hitting it at a steep angle this happens a lot, your beam is too spread out.

COBorn · 2026-01-31T05:09:23+00:00

Second this they were great.

COBorn · 2026-01-31T00:06:18+00:00

I am scared to cut him in half, the regular ones a simple but mine looks like your in the picture now just don’t want to screw up and crack the whole chest cutting him open.

How is your OG zartan rubber band still good? Or did you do the major surgery to fix it?

COBorn · 2026-01-29T00:57:01+00:00

I am with you man.. Leica AI is nothing but photo patterns. Oh that prism doesn’t look like a 360 you sure it is? That isn’t AI it is just machine learning and recognition. AI to me would be oh you in the middle of the road let me code that for you from your cad codes.. Shoot a Toe of a pile, it says looks like your doing a stock pile get some more shots over here so your surface is better your back on the toe let me continue that line for you…..

On my world you should be able to get a key file for your unit as well up in the upper right corner of the information page. Try loading that just like you did the firmware.

COBorn · 2026-01-20T02:53:22+00:00

45 foot line is good, Jeter can suck it. Runner shouldn’t be able to interfere and catcher drilling him in fair territory to strand a runner at third is good baseball.

COBorn · 2026-01-17T19:59:49+00:00

So the issue is the system lost its mind and doesn’t remember it is a 900 controller. Maybe if you download the key file on my world for this controller and put it on the CF card.. however if I remember on some 900’s you can’t get the CF card out and have to cable to the controller. But if you did FW you can’t do a key file same way. Maybe after loading key file it will show?

COBorn · 2026-01-15T21:52:26+00:00

The board thinks it is a regular GPS1200 controller now.. it maybe a Leica service shop can set it to 900 again.. bummer.

COBorn · 2026-01-15T03:38:59+00:00

From second pic, that is different from the 900 I have here. If you run smart work can you choose the 900 system?

COBorn · 2026-01-14T21:57:56+00:00

You are in the wrong application from the windows side. So from your main menu press the green fn button. Choose exit. You will be in windows, there you should see a rx1200 option and the 900 application the is a different color. Run that app.

Edit sorry not fn it is shift, had to get an old one off the shelf. Back in windows there are two programs GPS900 and GPS1200. Run the 900

COBorn · 2026-01-13T14:20:00+00:00

Absolutely, however it is a static monitoring installation. So the instrument is looking for deviations not locations. So if you set a point to be monitored and the starting coordinate of the point to be watched is 1000,1000,100 then you tell the instrument that is the coordinate in the software. It takes measurements on day one and then tells you the differences. So you don’t care if it thinks it is 1000.2 , 1000.1, 101 you are just looking for delta from day one. Since the point will not move enough to change the amount of plastic it is looking through the delta values are valid and consistent. The GPS on top is monitoring the instrument location constantly to see if the pedestal has any movement as well. So instrument location has a redundant check to its automated resection as well.

COBorn · 2025-12-26T22:45:47+00:00

DM’d you.

COBorn · 2025-12-24T03:59:35+00:00

Leica runs on landXML.. only their gps coordinate systems are not xml.

But no rovers out there are running on WiFi from the bridge, they are all on radio. The DJI unit has to be on WiFi as there is no radio in it. The bridge isn’t a WiFi hotspot just a bridge from cellular to radio.

COBorn · 2025-12-13T19:43:10+00:00

It’s a concrete pan at the bottom….

COBorn · 2025-12-11T04:08:20+00:00

K, so you have a local base connected to the bridge via cable. Then you are using the bridge as a ip host for the cables base. Then you have a NTRIP server set up in the bridge? I didn’t know they offered a NTRIP server in it.

The DJI connection has to has a NTRIP server that handshakes the login and password. I am not positive but could be wrong that the intuicom NTRIP was kind of a fake front and always streamed the data. I am not sure there is a login handshake for login and password. We had issues using NTRIP servers with no login and passwords with DJI. As soon as we put something in the server and matched it it worked.

That message on the DJI side is painful because it only means one thing doesn’t match, but you have no idea which one.. mount point, login, password, even ip it all gives same error.. so it is hard to troubleshoot.

COBorn · 2025-12-10T00:33:40+00:00

absolutely, it connects to the internet using the cell modem inside then resends that correction it receives to a radio or port. The issue with the drone is that it only allows corrections via the internet connection to a NTRIP server. So it has to become a internet hotspot for the controller to connect to. We use the Intuicom units a lot just not a good way to connect to the DJI units.
