Introduction
Trimble EMPOWER is an ecosystem of rugged platform devices along with sensor and communication modules,
together creating a host solution targeted at specific workflows. As an example a TSC7 combined with an EM120
radio module creates a controller solution able to connect and communicate with a Trimble Robotic total station.
The Trimble Empower Data Bridge (EDB10) is a “sled” that takes the Empower concept further to allow an
EMPOWER module to not only be used in EMPOWER hosts (e.g with TSC7) but with a full choice of consumer,
prosumer, semi-rugged and fully rugged devices. It allows the EMPOWER ecosystem to extend across more
devices and supports Windows, and Android.
The intended use is to connect a controller (without radio), to a Trimble robotic total station as shown below.
