GNSS Receiver Issues

How can I make Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC) run on a computer with a Windows 10 Operating System?

How can I use the Go-To function in Trimble Juno SB? I have predetermined coordinates and would like to know how to go to the preset locations when I go to the field. I imagine the Juno GPS should be capable to show me the direction and distance of a given point from my current position and prompt me when I get closer to the fixed point.

Am I correctly interpreting the following bit from the post-processing log file (PositionsDesktopAddIn.log) that the real time results were more accurate than the post-processed results, so therefore only the real time results were used (which would be SBAS and therefore only GPS, not GLONASS too)? (see log info in answer)

For this station, CORS AL90The NGS site says is GPS+GLOPositions Processing Profile does not list as supporting GLONASS. Is this just an error in the Trimble software?

Using Pathfinder office (5.4) with ArcGIS 10.1, where do you find the projections to use when correcting/export GPS data?

I am collecting a linear feature and am unable to directly occupy it. For the sake of neatness and simplicity, I am collecting vertices for this particular object. I am using a Laser Rangefinder for the offset of each vertex, and am wondering if there will be a bearing and distance offset option in the future. This would be especially useful for lengthy artifacts where the user may have to switch sides of the feature due to construction, fences, etc.If this would be better submitted elsewhere here or as a suggestion to Trimble, I’d appreciate your pointing me there. Thanks!-Jeremy

How do Louisiana Customers Differentially Correct Data in GPS Pathfinder Office During the Government Shutdown?

I collected data on the GEOXH and I tranferred it to Pathfinder. Now I want to export the information to a shapefile. I went to utilites and choose export to new ESRI shapefile. It tells me no projection file but it has still exported without a projection in the past so I choose continue. It then tells me that my features have been disregarded because they have no postions. How do I go about getting shapefiles?

We have six Juno SCs. The connections funtioned perfectly yesterday but PFO will not connect to any of them today. Windows is connecting to the device and I have toggled the USB to PC both ways with no success. The only thing that has changed since yesterday is the location of the license server. Please help.

The OS on our Geo6000 XH is currently 6.5.8. I am trying to update to 6.5.9 so that I can update to 6.5.10. I copied the 6.5.9 pks file to the storage card on the 6000 using Windows Mobile Device Center. I then attempted ot run the pks file from the file explorer. On multiple attempts I recieve the following message: Status: UnsuccessfulThis update could not be installed and has been deleted. Ton continue using your device, click Done.Any insight is appreciated.
