265 Leica Geosystems says that its latest package offers an efficient solution for monitoring communications. The updated GeoMoS v5.1 monitoring software features M-Com, which can integrate total stations, GNSS receivers and antennae, geotechnical sensors, software, and IT communication infrastructure. In addition the revised Leica GeoMoS v5.1 also supports the latest 2794 Microsoft Windows 7 operating system. The firm says that this package is easy to install and use, while increasing the mobility of periodic or short term monitoring systems. The Leica ComBox can link sensors in the field to the office using mobile internet using a PC with dedicated monitoring software. All types of different sensors are supported by the new communication box. Both communication boxes consist of a compact outdoor housing with a lock system and wall brackets for mounting. An optional component of Leica M-Com is the MonBox30, an energy-efficient Intel -based mini-industrial computer with a robust housing and pre-installed Leica GeoMoS monitoring software. This device can ensure that monitoring will continue in the event of a loss of communication.
