WHAT`s NEW in version 2.1.0
Features and firmware improvements directly available for the user after the firmware update.
1. Data transfer over cable
To have a faster and more robust data transfer of scans from the Leica BLK360 to a computing device
v2.1.0 supports the data transfer over LAN cable.
WiFi usually offers a stable datatransfer, but in an environment with multiple wireless devices issues can
arise. In cases like this or when a faster datatransfer is required, now the BLK360 can easily be
connected to a computing device.
This is a feature that was requested by the market and we are happy to present it now for the Leica
BLK360.
Two options are available.
1.1 Data transfer using a direct LAN communication to a computing device
The direct LAN communication to a computing device requires no existing network structure and can
very easily be setup, even when being out in the field.
Requirements:
- USB-C to Gigabit-Ethernet adapter (on BLK360 side)
- Ethernet LAN cable
- PC with Gigabit-Ethernet (can be via Gigabit-Ethernet adapter as well)
Regarding the requirements for the Ethernet adapter and LAN cable, please read chapter 1.3 of this
document.
Note:
In case the computing device does not have an ethernet port, a 2
nd
USB-C to Gigabit-Ethernet adapter
can be used.
