New Leica GEV220 Y cable TM30/TS30 total station to PC ( 9 pin RS232 serial ) and extenal batteries

the GEV220 cable is a specific cable designed for connecting Leica TM30/TS30 total stations to a PC or external batteries. It typically features a 9-pin RS232 serial connector on one end and connectors for the total station and external power source on the other end. This cable serves the purpose of data transfer, power supply, or communication between the total station and external devices. Here are some key points about the GEV220 Y cable:

1. Connectors:

   • Total Station End: This end of the cable connects to the TM30/TS30 total station. It provides the necessary interface for data communication and power supply to the instrument.
   • PC (RS232) End: The 9-pin RS232 serial connector is used to connect the cable to a PC or other compatible devices for data transfer.
   • External Battery End: This end of the Y-cable connects to an external battery or power source, supplying power to the total station when needed.

2. Purpose:

   • Data Transfer: The RS232 serial connection allows data transfer between the total station and a computer. Surveyors can use this connection to download measurement data from the total station to a PC for further processing and analysis.
   • Power Supply: The cable can also serve as a power supply connection, allowing the total station to be powered by an external battery source. This is useful for extended fieldwork when the instrument’s internal battery may need additional power.

3. Compatibility:

   • The GEV220 Y cable is specifically designed for use with Leica TM30 and TS30 total stations, ensuring compatibility with these models.
   • It is also designed for compatibility with PCs and devices featuring a 9-pin RS232 serial port.

4. Length:

   • The cable comes in various lengths to accommodate different working scenarios and distances between the total station, PC, and external power source.

5. Construction:

   • Leica Geosystems typically manufactures these cables with durable materials to withstand the demands of fieldwork.

If you plan to use the GEV220 Y cable with your Leica TM30/TS30 total station, it’s essential to ensure that the cable is properly connected to both the total station, external battery, and the PC. Additionally, you may need appropriate software and drivers on your PC to facilitate data transfer between the total station and the computer. Always refer to the user manual and documentation provided by Leica Geosystems for detailed instructions on using the cable and related setup procedures.
