TRIMBLE TSC2 CONTROLLER
COMBINE FIELD AND OFFICE IN ONE POWERFUL
HANDHELD COMPUTER
The Trimble® TSC2™ Controller is an advanced
handheld computer especially designed for
Trimble optical and GPS surveying systems1.
With the Microsoft® Windows Mobile™
software for Pocket PC operating system, the
TSC2 controller runs your choice of powerful
Trimble field software2. Add specialized Pocket
PC applications to the standard Microsoft
Pocket Messaging (Outlook), Internet Explorer,
Word, and Excel programs, and the TSC2
controller becomes a powerhouse of field
and office functions on one rugged business
device.
SMART, EXPANDABLE HARDWARE
Every innovative feature on the TSC2
controller is designed to make your job easier.
Clearly view background maps and check
work on the vibrant color graphic display for
greater data control and confidence. Use the
full alphanumeric keyboard, or quickly select
software options using the touch screen.
The unique TSC2 controller changeable cap
enables the use of removable memory or
third-party media, such as GPRS, GPS, camera,
and product scanner functions. Extend your
data logging capabilities and experience a
major leap in productivity.
INDUSTRY-LEADING COMMUNICATION
TECHNOLOGIES
Eliminate cable hassles and expedite
setup with integrated Bluetooth® wireless
technology. When the TSC2 controller is used
with a Trimble R8 or 5800 GPS system, the
rover is 100% cable free for unsurpassed
convenience and ease of use. The internal
2.4 GHz radio option is ideal for use with a
robotic system such as the Trimble S6 total
station.
Using the expandable media function, a
GSM/GPRS modem can add full wireless
communication to the Internet in the field.
Transfer data in your office over a wireless
802.11 LAN—again, no cables are required.
You can also use hotspots to quickly and
securely share data with your office from
remote locations.
FLEXIBLE COMMUNICATION OPTIONS
Choose the method of data transfer that suits
your situation. Using an external modem
such as a cell phone with Bluetooth, send and
receive files over the Internet from the field:
you don’t need to drive back to the office. In
the office, internal 802.11 technology provides
wireless connection to your network. The
TSC2 controller also provides USB and serial
RS232 communication options; data can be
transferred to a PC or another TSC2 controller
using a cable, Bluetooth, CompactFlash, or
Secure Digital memory card media.
BUILT FOR THE FIELD FOR ANY CONDITIONS
The TSC2 controller is rugged enough for any
job in any weather. It holds an environmental
rating of IP67 and operates in extreme
temperatures of –30 ºC to +60 ºC (–22 ºF to
+140 ºF). It can also withstand a pole drop
of 1.22 m (4.0 ft) onto a hard surface3. The
display is illuminated, so you can finish
any job fast even in low lighting. The TSC2
controller receives power from an ultralong-life lithium-ion battery that gives up to
30 hours4 of power.
ONE CONTROLLER, ONE SOFTWARE,
ONE INTERFACE
The TSC2 controller is central to Integrated
Surveying™ from Trimble. With an application
such as the Trimble Survey Controller™
software onboard, collect and manage both
GPS and optical data in one Job file simply
by switching the TSC2 controller between
sensors. Standardize on one flexible controller
for maximized investment. And your survey
team only needs to know one interface. When
field work is complete, simply transfer the Job
file to your office using the communication
method that suits your needs.
1 The TSC2 controller is designed to support Trimble’s latest surveying
systems, including the Trimble S6 Total Station and Trimble R8 GPS
system.
2 The TSC2 controller runs the Trimble Survey Controller software.
In addition, a number of regional solutions are available. For
more information, please contact your local Trimble authorized
distribution partner.
