Bugs

CoordSystemDatabase.xml

Issue description

Given customer uses custom geoid, and CoordSystemDatabase.xml in project in TCC,

When a machine control design gets published in WorksManager,

Then, WorksManager system replaces existing custom CoordSystemDatabase.xml file with a predefined older version for Earthworks devices

Fix

WorksManager will no longer send any default copy of CoordSystemDatabase.xml to machines. The machine picks up the CoordSystemDatabase.xml that comes with its firmware by default. In case, you want to use a custom geoid/ xml, you can upload to TCC/ machine directly, and the machine will start to use this new file instead of the default.
