The quarantine period of 168 hours (7 Days) is set per user, per product, per company. You cannot reassign a person to the same product or company until the quarantine period is over. You can immediately assign a person to a new product or company, in this case there is no quarantine.
Yes.
A Quadri Business Premium license is needed.
A Quadri Business Premium license will give you access to Connect Business Premium.
This needs to be done by the project admin in https://connect.trimble.com/
Connect for Browser: From the menu at the top right corner, select Check for updated license
Trimble Connect: All your projects should have a new administrator (a colleague, not you). Then, leave your projects, and delete your Trimble ID (from the Trimble Connect menu, select: My Trimble Subscriptions, Edit Profile, Would you like to remove your account completely?).
Either you create a single-user Quadri model, or download a workset from a private cloud using Quadri, this is stored locally on your PC (or at an available file server, but read this first). Novapoint creates the Binder file (*.NpBinder) and use it as a link to the Quadri model(s).
The binder is meant to be private for each user, typically having one for each project.
You can also imagine handling more than one project in the same binder, as long as the projects are related to each other in some way.
You also may download several worksets from the same model, and thus link it into the same binder, to have more detailed control over when you share your changes with others. You do this by working with different tasks in each workset, and share independently.
So, the reason for the binder is to keep - bind together - a set of related Quadri models. The binder also remembers what windows you had loaded the last time.
If you need to do some operations on the workset files, you need to know where to find them. The easiest way is to open the workset, click the cloud symbol and look in the “Properties” window for the file path, which shows the full path to the QuadriModel file.
If you can't open the workset, but know where the binder file (*.npbinder) is, you can open that in a text editor and find the full path there.
If you don't find the binder file or don't know where it is, search your local disks for *.QuadriModel, and you should find all worksets.
If you want to move a model with all it's projects to another server, here is a procedure you can follow:
First make sure all user's (including yourself) have shared changes and released all reservations in this model. We also recommend having them disconnect all worksets (except you, since you need them to do the move)
Then make sure you have a workset of all projects in the model downloaded and updated on your pc from the original server
Go to QMM and copy all information you need: Feature Catalogue, CRS and also the Area Of Interest (when you see the map, press the “…” over the map, then you can copy the coordinates) for each project into a text file.
Set the model unavailable on this server
Create a new model on the target server. Be sure to specify exactly the same Feature Catalogue, coordinate systems and Area Of Interest.
If there is more than 1 project in the model, create all the other projects as well.
Now for each project:
Open the original workset in Quadri for Windows. Click on the cloud symbol for the project, go to the “Properties” window and copy the full path to the model.
Close this workset
Add and download the newly created project from the target server
Go to “Insert Quadri G4” and paste in the full path to the original workset you copied earlier.
Share and release everything
Now open the original workset again, right click the cloud and select “Disconnect”, to remove the old files.
NB! You will not get any timeline copied with this procedure.
If you for some reason want to save a version of your Quadri-model to be able to access it later as it was before you did some changes, we recommend the following procedure:
find the directory of the project (righ-click the cloud icon when the project is open in Novapoint and look in the properties window under “path”).
exit Novapoint
copy the whole project from where it is to a local directory where you save this kind of projects
in this copy directory, go to the Job/7/projectname directory and delete the *.server.xml file. This prevents the project from communicating with the server if you open it later
start Novapoint again, open the project, right click the cloud icon and select “Disconnect workset”. This will let the server know this project is not longer in use and delete the local files in the original project directory.
download a new workset to work on
If you then later need something from the old workset, you can import it from your copy.
