Trimble Access Software Version 2015.22
These Release Notes contain information about the Trimble® Access™ software version 2015.22.
The Trimble Access software provides a collection of survey tools for use in the field, and web-based
services for the office and in the field. These applications may be installed on the controller, the
office computer, or on servers hosted by Trimble, depending on the parts you have purchased.
Installing the software and licenses on the controller

Operating system installation
With a new Trimble Tablet, the operating system is not installed. Turn on the Tablet to install the
Windows® operating system and then apply Windows updates.
With all other new controllers, the operating system is already installed.
Software and license installation

Before you use your controller, you must install the applications and licenses using the Trimble
Installation Manager. If you have:
l Never installed the Trimble Installation Manager, go to www.trimble.com/installationmanager
for installation information.

l Previously installed the Trimble Installation Manager, you do not need to reinstall it because it
updates itself automatically. Select Start / All Programs / Trimble Installation Manager to
start the Trimble Installation Manager.
For more information, click Help in the Trimble Installation Manager.
Note - For Trimble CU controllers, Trimble Access version 2013.00 and later can be installed only on
the Trimble CU model 3 (S/N 950xxxxx). Trimble CU models 1 and 2 have insufficient memory to run
later versions of Trimble Access.
Am I entitled to this version?

To install and run Trimble Access software version 2015.22, you must have a warranty agreement
valid up to 1 September 2015.
When you upgrade to version 2015.22 using the Trimble Installation Manager, a new license file is
downloaded to your device.
Updating office software

When you upgrade to version 2015.22, you must also update your office software. These updates
are required if you need to import your General Survey jobs into Trimble office software such as
Trimble Business Center.
When you upgrade the controller using the Trimble Installation Manager, the office software on the
computer that has the Trimble Installation Manager installed is also upgraded.

To upgrade other computers that were not used to update the controller, do one of the following:
l Install the Trimble Installation Manager onto each computer and then run Office updates.
l Run the Trimble Update Office Software packages for the Trimble Access software from
www.trimble.com/support_trl.aspx?Nav=Collection-84862.
l Use the Trimble Data Transfer utility:
l You must have version 1.51 or later installed. You can install the Data Transfer utility from
www.trimble.com/datatransfer.shtml.
l If you have version 1.51, you do not need to update to a later version of the Data Transfer
utility; you can run one of the Trimble Update Office Software packages from
www.trimble.com/support_trl.aspx?Nav=Collection-84862.
l If you only need to update the latest version of the Trimble Business Center software, you do
not need to run the Trimble Installation Manager to update the office software. The required
converters are now available on the controllers running the Trimble Access software and, if
required, they are copied from the controller to the computer by the Trimble Business Center
software.
Trimble Solution Improvement Program

The Trimble Solution Improvement Program collects information about how you use Trimble
programs and about some of the problems you may encounter. Trimble uses this information to
improve the products and features you use most often, to help you to solve problems, and to
better meet your needs. Participation in the program is strictly voluntary.
If you participate, a software program is installed on your computer. Every time that you connect
your controller to this computer using ActiveSync® technology or the Windows Mobile® Device
Center, the Trimble Access software generates a log file that is automatically sent to the Trimble
server. The file includes data on what the Trimble equipment is being used for, what software
functions are popular in specific geographical regions, and how often problems occur in Trimble
products that Trimble can correct.
At any time, you can uninstall the Trimble Solution Improvement Program. If you no longer wish to
participate in the Trimble Solution Improvement Program go to Add or Remove programs on your
computer and remove the software.
Documentation
Trimble Access Help is "context-sensitive." To access the Help, tap ? at the top of the screen.
A list of Help topics appears, with the relevant topic highlighted. To open the topic, tap its title.
Go to http://apps.trimbleaccess.com/help to download a PDF file of the Help. A separate PDF file is
provided for each application.

General Survey version 2015.22
Resolved issues
l SV count in NMEA output: An issue where a very large number of SVs was reported in NMEA
data output to VRS networks or from the receiver when the Use job coordinates option was
selected in the NMEA output options in the survey style is now resolved.
l R2 antenna in survey style: An issue when using the Trimble R2 with a Trimble Slate or TSC3
lite controller, where the R2 antenna type was not available for selection in the survey style is
now resolved.
l Trimble Slate controller running slowly: An issue where Trimble Slate controllers ran very
slowly or appeared to freeze when connecting to a GNSS receiver or starting a GNSS survey is
now resolved. For this fix to be effective, you must reset the controller to the factory default
settings and then install Trimble Access version 2015.22.
