This is in regards to using a Nikon NPL350 or NPL330 or DTM362 or DTM352 or DTM522
!!! Its critical to check the part number on your instrument cable.
A proper Nikon cable would normally have a part number:
"TDS148CNTG"
--- If your cable has "TDS148CGTSSOK" printed on it all the steps below will fail because this is a Topcon/Sokkia cable.
You would need to purchase a Nikon instrument cable before using SurvCE software in a data collector with your
instrument.
***On the Instrument***
1) Menu
2) 3 Settings
3) 5 Comm.
4) Set Ext. Comm to "Nikon" {the other option is "Set"}
5) Baud = 4800 / 8 / None / 1
6) Menu / 3 Settings / 8 Rec
7) Set "Data Rec." to "Comm" {the other option is "Internal"}
***SurvCE 2.61 settings***
1) Tap the Equip tab then tap "Total Station"
2) Set the Manufacturer to "Nikon" and set the Model to "NPL-330 Series"
3) Tap the Comms tab and set it up for:
Type: Cable
Port: Com1
Baud: 4800 / Data Bits: 8 / Parity: None / Stop Bits: 1
4) Fill out the Settings and Search tab with your preferences
5) Tap the Green Check in the upper right to save your changes
--> Please Note: If you set the "Ext. Comm" in the instrument on "Set" then you can set SurvCE under Equip / Total
Station to "Manufacturer: Sokkia" and "Model: Set 30R/30RK..." to run in "Sokkia Emulation" mode
