ArcPad 10 with Trimble YUMA

DemianRybock

I'm just starting to work with ArcPad 10 on the Trimble YUMA. I'm not finding much support out there yet, so I thought I'd try to start a forum post for others out there getting started. Who else is out there like me?

Using a Eye Fi card with the Yuma is much easier. Plus your images quality is much better. The cameras on the Yuma for what we do does not cut it.

Regarding the two camera issue with the Yuma...

In ArcPad preferences, you can set which camera device to use on startup. However, you need to know the Device ID. Anybody know where this can be found on the Yuma/Windows 7?

I really don't want to have rely on my user base to run the camera switch utility in addition to ArcPad. I need to keep it as simple as possible.

I've just been working on a project developing a custom data capture project on a Trimble YUMA. My only problem with it was the 32Gb solid state Hard drive was not enough space, after Windows 7 and all the other software (Arcpad etc.) I was left with "only" 20Gb of space. I needed to supply the field surveyor with a huge amount of raster imagery for much of the Scottish coastline. The solution was to put that all on a 400GB USB drive and the surveyor has to bite the bullet and deal with the faff of manually deleting and copying folders when they moved to their next survey block.

regarding the resolution of the photos captured - it does seem to be a bug with the ArcPad Camera extension, in that they resolution selected by the user is not actually used. Its something the ArcPad team is working on.

I'm game. Just started using the Yuma. Love it.

I'm having a problem where the resolution setting for the YUMA camera is not retained when used in ArcPad. It keeps resetting to the minimum resolution.

Does anyone know if this app will fix that? Or a solution?

Thanks

Hi - I have also been having similar problems. However, I did download the camera switching utility and it switches to the rear camera, but the images appear to be 1.2 megapixel resolution instead of the 2.0 resolution that it should be. Any ideas? I have the Trimble Yuma, running Windows 7. Thanks.

Our environmental health division is considering using the Yuma with ArcPad 10 for field data collection and generation of parcel specific site maps.

We will also be populating our permitting and inspection database and issueing permits and reports in the field. This is a custom d-base built on a Nexus platform which generates reports and print forms using Report Builder.

The questions is: For those of you using the Yuma are there any known difficulties with installing and running a nexus based d-base on these? How about report writer?

Any input?

Hi,

Did you try to keep the software "camera switcher" launch ?
If think that both ArcPad and Camera Switcher have to be open to make it work.

Hope that helps
Regards

I try with that app, but didnt works, every time that Arcpad need the Camera it only use the front one.

How I can change this default setting on arcpad 10?

BEst Regards,

KurtHassy

Thank you Stephen. This works fine.

The Yuma has two cameras which cannot be distinguished by the ArcPad Camera extension because both cameras are being presented to Windows and ArcPad as one software camera. Trimble APIs are required to correctly identify the two cameras and make the software camera switch between them.

Trimble has this functionality in a camera switcher application which you can download it from Trimble's website http://trl.trimble.com/dscgi/ds.py/Get/File-497013/Camera%20Switching%20Utility%201.0.0.616-1.zip and run the app prior to starting ArcPad.

Hi Demian,

I was just testing some of the functionality myself. One thing I tried out right away was the new default for the camera tool. It works with the web cam, but I couldn't find a way to switch cameras in order to use the back camera. Have you tried this yet?

Also, I did some testing of the related table forms, and it seems to work OK. I still have to do more testing though.
