Laurie, the leica works very well with the operation codes. They are easily
setup as free codes and are accessed as a list of codes as distinct from the
general code library. It is all converted on board to a .fbk file using a
format program. Naturally still a few bugs. Resulting in az , va being
displayed as 1d 56' 60" on occasions. Ldd does not like this, will not
import in this form. Another problem was getting the code to look like BEG
KB,( an not BEG............) the KB not able to be attached on the
instrument conversion. Required a APPLICATION to be run in Ldd to fix the
fbk file. Leica are supposed to have rectified the conversion to d ' " , not
so in lattest software version (I am not happy).
