Stonex R180 – User Manual 30
e. Cube-a
Cube-a is a Stonex field software for professional surveying and GIS which has been designed and
developed for the Android platform. Thanks to the flexibility of the Android environment, the user
interface is very simple and intuitive, and this makes surveyors ready for any work, saving time and
increasing productivity. With Cube-a is possible to perform a GNSS, GIS and Total Station survey. The
software can be installed on any device equipped with Android operating system.
Cube-a First Access
After software activation (refer to Cube-a user manual), the following screen appears. As visible in upper
status bar, the station is not connected to the software because the angle readings are not visible.
Click on “Device” -> “Total Station Communication” to check the status of the connection. Configure the
instrument communication as in the photo below selecting R180 as “Device Type” and inserting the TS
Authorization Code in section “Code”. This code is fundamental to guarantee the right communication
between R180 and Cube-a and must be inserted only after Cube-a first access. After the first entry, the
software stores the code for subsequent accesses.
Note. During Stonex checks and tests before the instrument shipment, we insert the TS authorization
code into Cube-a. For this reason, the user will find the code already stored in Cube-a.
Click on “Connect” to connect the instrument to Cube-a.
