I just got the MS60 and tried scanning with it. This station is totally new to me and i have only been working with leicas totalstations before.
I tried to make a scanning, that went succesfully, now is my problem, how do i export this scan to an ascii file (XYZ RGB)? Cause when i try to do it from the remote, only the stationposition gets exportet, nor the point cloud! I can export the pointcloud to an .sdb file, but as far as i can read, it only can be importet to cyclone and i want to open the file in Meshlab.
Any advise?
You can contact to your supplier for LISCAD, a software from LISTECH which can transfer from SDB to PTS, XYZ .... with more affordable price than Cyclone :D. They (Leica supplier) suggest me to use this.

You are not missing anything. The sdb (scan database) file on the MS60 (or controller) needs importing into office software such as Cyclone, or Leica Infinity or compatible 3rd party software first before exporting ASCII or PTS or E57 etc.

Hi Guys,

Why I cannot see that it is possible to import the SDB file to Cyclone, What I can do is to export the scan project to XML format and then import to Cyclone.

Here is a screenshot, on the left shows all the formats that are supported when we import scans through right clicking a database in cyclone; on the right is from the main menue: File, here we can see Nova Serie, but still not sdb option..

do I miss sth. ?

Hi James,

Yes, we have the lastest version, 9.1.5 and as I described, I can see the option ¨Import Nova Multistation¨ option, but I can only select XML format in the window. See screenshots.
