## Load sensor transform from .plp file

This tool can be used to import boresight calibration values for the LiDAR and/or Camera sensor from a .plp file provided by the Phoenix LiDAR Systems Calibration Team. 

Below is an example of importing the calibration values for a LiDAR sensor. **These values need to be imported into every sensor (Camera, LiDAR) in every rover profile if there are multiple.**

First, connect to the rover via SpatialExplorer and open the **Settings -> Rover dialog.**

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="1" %}
In the bottom left, load the profile that you’d like to update. Note that factory profiles (marked in bold) cannot be updated by the user.

![](/files/-MJ-73ZtAwlPMPkdL8ed)
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="2" %}
Navigate to the **CAM** settings section and the Calibration tab. Click on "Tools..." and select "**Load sensor transform/extrinsics from file**".

![](/files/-MIfPFK077P5jTVxob4K)
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="3" %}
Select the .plp file you'd like to load the calibration values from.

![](/files/-MIfPu_9d_zoL5_337V7)
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="4" %}
Select "**sessions**" as the source if this is a boresighted .plp file, or from "**acquisition**" if you want to load the sensor corrections from the rover's configuration during acquisition. 

![](/files/-MIfPyFxo6cpjgSee9P6)
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="5" %}
Select the LiDAR sensor to load transforms and corrections from.

![](/files/-MIfQ--B1HSfJFM6FE-q)
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="6" %}
The calibration values from the .plp will be successfully loaded.

![](/files/-MIfQ3-rvY8rMhY33gjn)
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

Next, proceed to load the calibration values for other sensors or profiles if applicable. If not, ensure you save the rover profile with the new calibrated values for future use.
