Leica Captivate v2.30-下一个出色的版本

After the releases of Leica Captivate v2.10 and v2.20 we have received lots of great feedback about the new features contained. We have again been listening hard to our users and hopefully we will again receive good feedback for the Leica Captivate v2.30 release.

对于2017年6月26日发布的新版本，我们专注于两个人，因为我们的许多用户都在工作，然后我们投入了几个额外的好东西，以备受胜利。

这个新版本的主要主题是Coding and Lineworkand theStakeout apps. Let’s have a closer look at what we did.

New coding and linework functionalities

Let’s first look at the linework part of coding and linework.

Support of line codes

新版本,Leica Captivate现在，除了点代码外，还支持行代码。将CAD图导入Leica Captivate时，现在将包含线路的层的名称导入为行代码。这可以用来在现场提供其他信息，反之亦然 - 在现场测量的行可以给出一个代码和属性，以在办公室编辑调查时提供其他信息。

导出到ASCII的线路工作信息

Some third party CAD software recreate the linework that was captured in the field by reading the linework flag stored with each point from an ASCII import.

V2.30 of Leica Captivate now allows defining the used linework flags in the Coding settings panel.

When a point in a line is measured, the linework flag is automatically stored with that point. When a measured line is edited, the line itself is updated and in addition the linework flags belonging to the points are also updated.

Code boxes in the Stake/Check Road app and Measure to Line app

With Leica Captivate v2.30, the well-received coding method with code boxes has been added to the Stake/Check Road and the Measure to Line apps. This will be very beneficial when doing topographic surveys along roads or reference lines, e.g. at a certain corridor left and right of a road design centreline, and using coding for this survey.

Assign codes to points measured with a remote height

With this new feature, it is no longer necessary to add codes to high points in the office software as they can be coded directly in the field.

有了这项新功能，不再需要将代码添加到Office软件中的高架点，因为它们可以直接在现场进行编码。

Extended code name length

使用Leica Captivate v2.30代码名称的可能长度，代码描述和属性值从16个字符扩展到48个字符。这包括使用点代码，免费代码和行代码。

The extended length is especially useful to enter additional information within the feature code, such as linework commands, or to include stakeout instructions for the field as part of the code.

New stakeout functionalities

对于使用Stake的每个人，Leica Captivate v2.30中包含许多改进和新功能。大多数新功能都与放入道路有关，但也有一个用于堆叠点的道路。

存储一个具有多个海拔的固定点

For certain stakeout applications it is useful to store the measured point with more than one elevation. One example is staking out manholes. When measuring the centre of a manhole, the drain below may have pipelines joining at different height levels.Leica Captivate现在允许进入多个高度的固定点，并随时显示出进入高度的切割和填充。

The new feature is available in the Stake Points app, the Stake DTM app and the Stake Points & DTM app.

Stake arcs along chords

Now for the Road stakeout. The first new feature is related to staking arcs in alignments. In some countries, when staking arcs in an alignment, the chainage is not calculated along the centreline of the alignment but along defined chords of the arc. Leica Captivate v2.30 now supports the chord definition method, preventing wrong results over long alignments from using the arc definition.

新的道路出现横截面视图一目了然地显示了所有信息

The other new Road stakeout features are all related to the cross section view that shows a vertical cut through an alignment.

使用Leica Captivate v2.30，横截面视图现在显示了附加到作业的DTM和CAD文件的内容。此外，还引入了一个新设置，允许用户定义切换到横截面视图时应显示所有道路层。

So in the cross section view, all data available at a certain chainage is now shown at a glance to give full information on the design.

然而,扩展内容的横截面view means it can get a bit crowded. Therefore we have added a setting to vertically stretch the cross section view if needed. Users can define how much the view should be stretched and can therefore adjust this setting depending on how much information is shown in the cross section view.

The third additional feature for the cross section view is that it allows the selection of the active layer. So users can now change the active layer directly from within the Stake/Check Road app without the need to switch to a different panel. This should speed up the work process and makes it easier to check the different design elements also in the horizontal view.

The smart enhancements

Last but not least, we have added a couple of changes that we had been asked for quite a number of times.

Hide the 3D viewer in additional apps

The first change, we already started with Leica Captivate v2.20, were it was possible to hide the 3D viewer in the Measure app to see more information on the measurement while working, and switching to the 3D viewer only when needed. With Leica Captivate v2.30 this is now also possible in the Measure to Line app and in all Stakeout apps. This allows quick and easy switching between the graphical and numerical information, saving time and making sure that inconsistencies are detected early.

Persistently activate using capital letters

The second new feature relates to entering information intoLeica Captivate.一些用户喜欢打字成立与所有字母rs in capital letters. With Leica Captivate v2.30 users can activate entering alphabetical characters in capitals and the software will stay with this setting while working and also after turning the instrument off and on again.

当有新的Leica Captivate版本可用时通知

我们计划继续定期发行，将新功能迅速连续地带入市场。但是，为了使我们的用户从中受益，可以及时了解新版本是有帮助的。从Leica Caintivate v2.30开始，将直接在CS20，CS35或TS/MS仪器上通知用户有关每个新版本的Leica Captivatethat is available in myWorld, if the instrument is connected to the internet. So our users can start enjoying our new features as soon as they are released.

How can the new release be obtained?

新的Leica Caintivate v2.30现场软件版本将在myWorld用于下载，并将加载到所有运行的产品bob综合app下载Leica Captivate从工厂交付之前。要在控制器或总站上安装此新版本，客户服务包（CCP）许可证有效，直到必须在仪器上安装至少01.05.2017。
