Trimble TGO GPS site calibrations tips (1)

In order to manipulate Trimble GPS calibrations using TGO it is absolutely critical to keep original controller's JOB containing the on site GPS measurements for calibrations.
Or else only a point to point (*.csv, *.txt) transformation is possible.

TGO does not import a job other from controller. So copying a job to another media is useless!
eg It is not possible to import it from a desktop backup! But this backup should exist so that it can be copied back to controller and import it from there!

Civil 3D custom subassemblies created with previous versions of SAC may not work as expected when imported to later C3D versions

Custom subassemblies created with previous versions of SAC may not work as expected when imported to new c3d versions (although if already in a drawing of a previous c3d version will work fine when opened with later version!).
I met such a case. All previous version subassemblies worked fine except one! Worked fine when opening a previous version dwg file already containing it. But did not work if imported from scratch to a later C3D version!
