Trimble Access Data Storage Issue: Status and Recommendations
Trimble has recently received reports of job data not properly saving in a rare number of cases. The below bulletin outlines the issue, simple recommendations to avoid or mitigate the issue, current status, and where to go for more information.
Issue:
When a surveyor typically uses Trimble Access to collect data on a job, that data is initially held in memory and then automatically written to disk every 3 seconds. Trimble has received reports that in rare instances, this automatic process is being suspended. This suspension by itself does not cause any data loss, as the data can still be saved at a later time. If, however, (1) the process is suspended AND (2) the application is unexpectedly shut down, then data loss may occur.

R12i Users Tip - best method for measuring where excessive tilt is necessary (e.g. Building Corners)
Use the MultiTilt point measurement method to measure a point using three contributing tilted eBubble measurements.
When you measure a MultiTilt point, you position the tip of the pole at the desired measurement location and keep the pole tip fixed at the same location during the entire measurement process. Tilt the pole first in one direction and measure, tilt the pole in the second direction and measure, and then tilt the pole in the third direction and measure.
The below link will guide you through measuring three tilted observations.
