Testing the Total Station Sokkia SET 630RK
I have just begun to see this model, at the end of the month I hope to do a formal training so that the technicians are Evangelize in its news. Until now we had been using the Set520K, Of which I had spoken before.
We will give the workshop at the end of May 2010, either in Honduras or El Salvador. If someone is in the environment and wants to sign up, they will be welcome.
If you can not for that date, it is not too much to leave the message, because we plan to do another one later.
What does r mean
I came from reflectorless, which means you can take readings like an EDM and not compulsorily using a prism. This is very practical, because in a well-planned job it is possible to save one of the chain workers, I'm not saying both because someone has to help us load the tripod. In a Cadastral survey Urban or engineering project, being able to bounce on existing objects is a great advantage.
What does K mean?
Is keyboard, or what is called an extended keyboard. That letter is carried by all those computers that the keyboard apart from the basic function keys already include the additional panel of numbers and that also serve to enter letters. Sure, this Set 630RK only has a keyboard on one side, unlike the 520K, although the techies tell me they don't see much of an advantage to the double keyboard unless they are training.
The variants of this model are:
- Set230RK3
- Set330RK3
- Set530RK3
- Set230RK
- Set330RK
- Set530RK
- Set630RK
The difference between the first group and the second (among others) is 3, which means a 3R laser with which you can obtain up to 350 meters without a prism and up to 800 with a miniprism. While the other is a class 2 laser, reflectance of up to 200 meters nothing more. This is significant to improve the accuracy, capture time in fast mode, although for that I recommend taking a look at the comparative table Of total stations I showed them the other time.
This equipment (Series 3) is said to be more robust at the hardware level, although the improvements at the software level are more noticeable, especially in the distance meter. The laser has a finer pointer, to the point of being able to take points with precision such as the edge of a beam, the corner of a wall, even having obstacles in front such as a wire mesh or a bush. The following iconography shows functionalities that this equipment brings, of which I will explain at least two:
Offset with two points, see that in the case of taking a point in a corner of a house (C), the inclined cane can be placed, indicate that we will take offset with two points (A and B) and enter the distance that these two points have that we know from the walking stick. Thus, the equipment detects where point C.
Area calculation, this equipment can with up to 50 3D coordinates, calculate the area. This is interesting, in case of radial measurements or when we want to have an idea of the area taken before coming to the cabinet to Download And draw the polygon.
Price:
That will depend on the local distributor, as a reference I have consulted Froogle, and the value that appears to me is close to US $ 7,000. But when I click on the link I get a higher value, not including accessories.
Sokkia has its distributors in each country, but with the boom in online sales, exclusivity is fading. In my opinion, with two poles, two prisms and a tripod, debería To walk there, put at the airport. To this we will have to add the customs clearance costs (perhaps about $ 150) and the sales tax, depending on the country.
Buying it online with an unauthorized dealer, paying shipping costs, and so on is not so practical. It ends up being more expensive and the warranty is complicated. Used equipment is a lottery that usually ends badly.
A local dealer is supposed to be in that price range, maybe up to $ 8,000. In case of being exclusive, their prices will be higher because they have no competition. For that there is (Well, there are not many but there are) Distributors that sell at regional level, outside their countries where they have representation, with all the guarantees of law and much more competitive prices.
A manual of Use of this total station Was worked by Leopoldo Hernández and his team.
Good Morning!
Some might help me with this total set630rk station.
I acquired little time and I am having a hard time marking or barreling with it, function of two coordinates made to extend that line and dialing not gabarito or ponto dessa extensão.
is anyone enabled ??
Thank you

Comment change la langue de la station sokkia 510 du chinois au francais ou englais
because in the horizontal angle when measuring a point I get E90 and it does not measure
I have a station Total Sokkia SET 630RK; And I need to activate oset, because it does not give me the degrees, and I need them to help me, how to do it.
I have a total sokkia station set 650rx makes me error (e024) and does not read distances, if I read horizontal and vertical angles. I can do to eliminate that type of error that does not mention it in the manual and do not comment on it. Someone could help me please thank you!
I have not seen on the Internet a site that indicates how to do that. The most convenient thing is that you consult with the supplier of that equipment in your country.

Thank you
Hi, very good afternoon my question is: How can I or how do I to canbiar the screen to the Spanish of my total station SOKKIA SET 630 RK3 in advance I thank you much for your support thanks.
I NEED THE 650RX MANUAL, HOW MUCH DO I SPEAK IT IN SPANISH
PEND THE COMPLETE MANUAL OF THE STATION BECAUSE IN SUMMARY IT DOES NOT UNDERSTAND IT
How do I change the language on the screen of the sokkia station 630rk?
How do I get the manual of total station sokkia set 630 rk in Spanish.
Well, there are several things to see there:
1. If you purchased the adapter with a CD, you must install the driver.
2. If not, and since you have Windows 7, it should be Plug & Play.
3. You should verify that the port is correct; That is done with:
Start, Control Panel, System and there you choose Device Manager.
Look under Ports (LPT & COM) for one that says: Prolific USB to Serial Comm
Choose advanced settings, and make sure the transfer speed is to 33600 bps and the 1 COM port number
This should work, sometimes you need to right-click the port and choose to check for changes. However, being Plug & Play, the change should be recognized immediately.
I have a total station sokkia set610. Buy a cable that matches serial to vga in order to connect the computer to the station. The thing is that I do not recognize it. Help to dump the data my system is windows 7
Check this link, which published Galileo Topography.
There they explain how to configure the ports.
The Serial Port 1 COM must be at a transfer speed of 33600 bps
That is a fairly common problem, not Sokkia's fault but Windows because the handling of ports in laptops often conflict, as opposed to desktop.
I do not know if anyone has managed to solve it.
The new Rk have an SD card, which eliminates this problem of being lowered with cable.
I have a total station sokkia rk, and I have complicated the download of data to a laptop with window 7 there will be some driver or some way to enable the downloading of data is very complicated for me to leave every time work to the city to download data I appreciate any information. Richard
Hi carlos. To answer you must say in which country you are.
all the best
I would like to know where I can go to obtain the manual of use of a total station sokkia, model 630rk.de before hand I thank you
It's not a bad idea. The equipment sales market in Mexico is hoarded but the sale of training, support, repair and calibration services is a broad niche that is not satisfied with the few that do.
That is a fairly frequent problem. In general it is presented by two situations:
1. It is that the USB cable not only transmits data but also power, and that is why it is very easy to damage the port or the ship that can bring the device of the connection cable. You should always see if it is possible that the cable is damaged by trying on another machine.
In the case of serial connection cables, because they are data transfer only, they do not present such problems.
2. The other reason is because the USB port is very easy to get into conflicts, because they are several, has evolved to different transfer models and with each version of windows is complicated. This is why conflict on machines with Windows Vista or Windows 7 is very common.
The ideal is to work downloading on Windows XP native computers, not downgraded from a Win7.
I'm sorry I can not do more than explain the problem to you. It remains to use a desktop PC for download as the new laptop no longer have a serial port. But considering it is possible to lose a job for not being able to download data, it is better to return to the tyranny of the PC can, buy a serial cable or continue using Windows XP.
Hello my dear, look I am currently with the SOUTH 320NTS total station… BUT THE PROBLEM IS THAT I CANNOT DOWNLOAD THE DATA TO A LAPTOP .. IT SEEMS IT DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE USB CABLE… IT ONLY ACCEPTS THE RECTANGULAR PORT (WITH HOLES), THIS SEEMS THAT IT IS ONLY FOR EQUIPMENT OF OLD COMPUTERS ... IF YOU COULD HELP ME ... OR SEND IT TO ME ...
