TS02 Webinar for Technical Support Subscribers: Finding and using Trimble Style sheets- Trimble Access, Survey Controller, ASCII File Generator and Trimble Business Center (TBC) Seiler Instrument January 7, 2013
Today’s Webinar • What are Style sheets tools • Where to find Style sheets • Where to store Style sheets • How to use Style sheets in each tool • How to perform basic edits to customize Style sheets • How to request a custom Styles sheet be built.
Style sheets tools • Field data collectors • Trimble Access • Survey Controller v11x, 11.2x or later • ASCII File Generator • Job Report Generator in TBC
Custom File Exporting • A JobXML format file is created automatically in the background of the export
Controlling the Output • Some Style sheets ask user to define some settings after selecting
Downloading new Style sheets • Trimble.com under Trimble Access and Survey Controller • Custom export and reports • Stakeout style sheets • Some Style sheets are automatically included with initial installation
Trimble.com Support list A-Z • Select Trimble Survey Controller on TSC2 • Select Downloads and documentation • Trimble Survey Controller Style sheets http://www.trimble.com/tsc_ts.asp?Nav=Collection-47680
Trimble.com Support list A-Z • Select Trimble Access • Select Downloads • Custom Export Style Sheets • Style Sheets for As-staked Deltas Display • Style Sheets for Road Definition Files • Style Sheets for Tunnel Data • Trimble Access Monitoring Style Sheets http://www.trimble.com/survey/Trimble-Access-IS-support.aspx
Examples • Area computation report (SC 12.4+) • Comma delimited with multiple stake elevs • Comma Delimited with notes • Point comparison report • Points and notes report • Productivity Report • Volume computation report • List of XSL on the web
Examples of export Style sheets • GPS Calibration report This GPS Calibration report style sheet reports the details of the GPS calibration in a job. • Computed station and offset values Use this style sheet to compute the station and offset values for the points in the job based on the specified Trimble road definition.
Zip files • Actual output HTML report Wiscors note
Where to put XSL Style Sheet • On Data collector • Survey Controller in the Trimble Data folder • Trimble Access in Trimble Data/System Files folder • On Computer • Any folder
Reports in The Field • Generate more complex reports, designed for office viewing, directly in the field • Use AccessSync to send reports back to the office where they can be viewed or printed • Use a thumb drive, ActiveSync or Mobile device manager to copy them off the data collector to the office
Exporting Data Files • DXF Style sheet export
KML Style sheet export • Google Earth file • Displays the field coordinates
Rename any XSL • Users can rename any of the Style sheets to make it easier for field staff • Example: “KML file” can be renamed Google Earth export.
Customize As-Staked views • All the stakeout screens are controlled by Style sheet files in the System Files folder • The stakeout report style sheets all have the file extension .sss • Using style sheets for this reporting means that it is possible to: • Control what is displayed • Carry out computations on the staked data • Conditionally present data or messages
SSS Stakeout Style sheet • Use the Options soft key on the stake out screens to choose the Staked deltas format style sheet:
SSS Stakeout Style sheet • In Survey Style Stakeout delta format setting • Select the sss
Customized Stakeout Reports The default point stakeout deltas screen: An example of a customized point stakeout deltas screen:
Customized Stakeout Reports • The standard road stakeout Position on Road method report
Customized Stakeout Reports • Position on Road staking method with a custom vertical conformance report style sheet – provides immediate feedback: Too high Too low
Customized Stakeout Reports Just right!
Stake Mark-up Report • Customize the Stakeout style sheet to standardize what goes on a stake or lath
SSS Stakeout Style sheet • http://www.trimble.com/survey/trimble-access-is_support.asp?Nav=Collection-59517
Where to put SSS Style Sheet • On Data collector • Survey Controller in the Trimble Data folder • Trimble Access in Trimble Data/System Files folder • On Computer • Won’t use on computer.
Office Reports • Create reports in the office • The ‘ASCII File Generator’ utility program, available for installation from the Trimble Web site • Uses Survey Controller and Trimble Access .JOB files or JobXML, Road RXL and XML files
Office Reports • If a job file is too big to run an XML Style sheet script in the field- the ASCII file generator will run it in the office with the computing power of the PC rather than the Data collector
Install ASCII file generator • Install utility • Certain XSL style sheets come with the install http://www.trimble.com/survey/Trimble-Access-IS-support.aspx
Run ASCII file generator Sometimes installed under Trimble Data transfer
Office Reports • Select the appropriate downloaded file • Select the required output format style sheet
Office Reports • Set user variables with appropriate settings
TBC • Edit data as needed • Export to a JobXML • Select Tools Job Report generator • Select JobXML • Select Style sheet • Set Save as file • Verify settings • Tap OK
