Powered by the latest Trimble Access 2020, a modern 5” touchscreen, Wi-Fi, and Android OS, this mighty technology elevates your productivity from the field to the office. So the only boundaries you work within are your own.

Behind every great wonder of the world is the precision and planning of a great land surveyor. That’s what drives us to continually advance the performance of our S Series Total Stations with tools like the new, on-board TCU5 controller.

Designed to maximize productivity across the S5, S7, S9, and S9 HP Total Stations, the TCU5 delivers:

  • The latest Trimble Access 2020 field software to streamline workflows
  • A rugged 5-inch touchscreen for better visibility and usability
  • Wi-Fi connectivity + Trimble Sync Manager for field-to-office data transfer
  • Android operating system and interface for toggling between applications
  • In-the-field flexibility as an onboard control unit or robotic data collector

All these benefits make the TCU5 controller a must-have for surveyors wanting to upgrade to a modern control unit, or from a mechanical station to an automatic tracking instrument using Trimble S Series Autolock Total Stations and Trimble Active Tracking.

Description

Trimble TCU5 is the Controller designed to improve productivity on S5, S7, and S9 total stations, offering exceptional workflow management. The TCU5 controller, powered by the latest Trimble Access 2020, improves your productivity, as does the new robotic mount and high-performance docking station.

The Trimble TCU5 is a reliable and durable controller for working with S-Series tacheometers. The device’s built-in Android operating system, Wi-Fi connectivity, and extensive compatibility options make the TCU5 an indispensable companion for more productive and faster performance. In addition, the rugged body of the device ensures that your data is safe when measured in any weather.

Trimble TCU5 allows both classical uses on Total Station and can measure by controlling it over the pole for single-person robotic use. Under the Trimble integrated merchandising concept, it also functions as the control unit of Trimble GNSS receivers, integrating both the robot Total Station and the GNSS receiver at the same time.
