Remotely Trigger Leica T-Probe from PC-DMIS

Well I tried an "advanced" search on the "fancy" new "Nexus" and found that "quotes" do nothing?
Also very briefly considered posting this in the portable section but chose against it cuz this is where the all the cool kids are. 

Does anyone know of a way to remotely trigger the T-probe on a Leica tracker from within PC-DMIS?
We ran in to a situation today that would have made that very handy for one person to be holding the probe in the proper location and another person to trigger the probe from the computer. We got the job done by one person holding the probe and the other person climbing a ladder to reach the body of the t-probe and hit the button.

  • Thanks again! Saved this horrid project for us! Two sets of mobile stairs, a step stool and 3 tv's strategically placed around the part with lots of yoga moves. But at least the person doing yoga just has to hold the probe still and not worry about trying to reach the buttons. 
    Also picked up a cheap projector remote, works great with is two programable buttons! (sadly we didn't have one in our case)
