这Leica Captivate Experience continues Interviews with our experts

这Leica Captivate Experience继续……一些新的解决方案were announced on May, 2. We have asked Alastair Green, Field SW business director, Bernhard Richter, GNSS business director and Hans-Martin Zogg, TPS business director, to explain what are the new solutions and what are the benefits for the users.

阿拉斯泰尔（Alastair），引人入胜的V2.00发行版推出了什么新解决方案？

We have released a number of new software and hardware solutions. This includes

Leica Captivate v2.00for all CS20, CS35, TS16, TS60 and MS60. This software, most of which is described by Bernhard and Hans-Martin, includes a number of new features such as

– support of the new self-learning Leica GS16 with its 555 channels, RTKplus, SmartLink and SmartLink Fill,

– on the Leica MS60: the new dynamic lock and for all TS16, TS60 and MS60, the new orientate to object setup method

– and a handful of other features and bug fixes.

Leica Smartworx Viva V6.00所有CS10、CS15 TS15 TS50, TM50 MS50。这re are mainly bug fixes in the new software for these controllers and instruments. Since SmartWorx Viva also runs on the GS sensors, this version should also be loaded to GS10, GS14, GS15 and GS25.

所有新功能的完整详细信息都可以在发行说明中找到，可以从中下载我的世界。

We receive a lot of wishes and ideas from our customers and always try and implement as many as possible. This is an ongoing process and will continue for the next few years – so ensure to keep your CCP (Customer Care Package) up to date, so you can always install the latest versions.

伯恩哈德（Bernhard），阿拉斯泰尔（Alastair）已经提到了新的自我学习GS16。“自学”是什么意思？

正如大多数人所知道的，在过去的几年中，卫星星座增加的信号数量（GPS，Glosnass，Beidou，Galileo）已大大增长，这将在未来持续下去。

但是更多的信号不会自动带来更好的性能。更多的信号会产生更多的噪音。

通过选择最佳信号组合来对变化条件的智能适应是提供最准确位置的关键。因此，自我学习的GNSS传感器适应了使用传感器的条件。

This means wherever a self-learning GNSS sensor is being used, the best available satellite signals and the best available correction data is chosen automatically. This ultimately results in the best possible position and accuracy regardless of the surrounding conditions.

Users do not need to worry about all the satellites constellations – the Leica GS16 does that for them and they can work more efficiently and in more challenging environments than ever before.

What is SmartLink and how does a user benefit from it?

SmartLink is a subscription service where GNSS correction data is transmitted by augmentation satellites (which are not the same as the GNSS satellites).

It utilises the corrections from geostationary satellites to compute a position with an accuracy of +/-3 cm (2D).

SmartLink is the perfect bridging service for data gaps in any local network such as SmartNet to remain cm positioning with ambiguity resolution. In complete remote areas the same accuracy can be achieved after an initial convergence period typically between 20 to 40 minutes.

So the user has the certainty that his GS16 will continue to provide cm positions even when the RTK data stream is lost or even where no RTK corrections are available at all.

Let’s have a look at the MS60 MultiStation. Hans-Martin, could you please explain the dynamic lock functionality and in which use cases a user can benefit from it?

Until now the Leica MS60 detected and locked onto a moving prism only when the prism passed the field of view of the telescope which is quite narrow with 1.5°.

有了新的动态锁，视场已扩大到+/- 20°的垂直激光迷。当棱镜越过这个垂直风扇后，MS60现在可以锁定在棱镜上。该仪器将检测并锁定到棱镜上。

MS60上的新动态锁在许多方面提高了用户的效率，例如，在放在有许多障碍物的施工站点上或将棱镜安装在移动的施工机上时。

让我们观看视频以详细观看这些用例

新的“定向对象”方法是什么？

“定位对象”是一个新的我额外的设置thod for total stations and MultiStation which allows to orientate the instrument’s coordinate system into an object coordinate system. The difference between common setup methods is that with “orientate to object” the horizon of the two coordinate systems do not need to be parallel. In other words, the vertical axis of the two coordinate systems do not need to be parallel. Or the z-axis of the object is not in the direction of gravity.

这种新的设置方法开设了新的应用程序领域，例如对预制元素进行的检查。一个例子可能是混凝土梁制造工厂。对于此用例，该仪器是在工厂设置的，并且正在测量混凝土梁。每个光束都有其“自己的坐标系”。光束没有移动，只需要测量在交付前检查公差即可。
