Connecting the Receiver and a
Computer
Topcon's PC-CDU software provides an interface for various
configuration, monitoring, and management functions for the
receiver.
To configure, manage files, or maintain the receiver, connect the
receiver and a computer using one of the following methods and start
PC-CDU:
• a Bluetooth-enabled external device (computer/controller)
• an RS232 cable and a computer/controller
• a USB cable and a computer/controller with the TPS USB driver
installed
Once a connection between the receiver and the computer/controller
has been established:
• configure the receiver and its components
• send commands to the receiver
• download files from the receiver's memory
• upload new firmware using FLoader™
• upload an OAF
• upload configuration files to a receiver

Establishing a Wireless Connection

The GR-3 receiver contains Bluetooth wireless technology that allows
file transfer and synchronization between the receiver and any other
external device that supports Bluetooth wireless technology; for
example, an FC-100, or a computer with USB-to-Bluetooth adapter or
PCMCA-to-Bluetooth adapter installed.
