In the world of precision surveying, the ability to transfer data seamlessly between a field instrument and office software is not just a convenience—it is a necessity. Sokkia ProLink Version 1.15 represents a significant utility tool designed specifically to act as the communication bridge between Sokkia’s legacy total stations (such as the SET and SRX series) and a Windows-based PC.
While newer models have embraced Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, version 1.15 remains a critical solution for technicians and surveyors who rely on stable, cable-based data transfer via RS-232C serial communication.

Sokkia ProLink is a field software application designed to control Sokkia’s line of total stations, including the popular SET and SRX series. It allows surveyors to manage jobs, store coordinate data, perform remote elevation measurements, and manage stakeout points directly from a handheld controller. In the world of precision surveying, the ability
Unlike more bloated modern software that requires high-end tablets, ProLink is lean. It was built for Windows Mobile 5.0, 6.0, and 6.5, making it ideal for rugged devices like the Sokkia SDR series or the FC-200, FC-250, and FC-5000 data collectors.
Version 1.15 represents a mature release in the ProLink lifecycle—long enough after the initial launch to have received critical patches, but before the move toward subscription-based or GNSS-focused platforms. To run Sokkia ProLink version 1
