This version optimized the "Hybrid" workflow—where the software tracks both a robotic total station and a GNSS rover simultaneously. If the robot loses line-of-sight behind a tree, the software automatically switches to GNSS to keep you moving. Why Version 4.3 Matters for Your Workflow While newer versions have since been released, | Feature | Topcon Magnet Field v4
Since the release of v4.3, Topcon has continued to evolve the MAGNET ecosystem, eventually moving toward version 7 and beyond. While v4.3 remains a robust and stable environment for many legacy systems, newer versions offer enhanced integration and improved 3D visualization.
