Using the Web Server
•
Mode
: Specify the role played by the base in the IP
connection (server or client).
•
Protocol
: Select the protocol that will be used in the IP
connection (“TCP” or “UDP”). “TCP” should be chosen
preferably. In cases where you need to output data at a
very high update rate, UDP may be used instead.
•
IP Address
: (A valid field only if the base is used as the
client) Enter the IP address of the system (rover) that will
acquire the data stream.
•
IP Port
: Specify the IP port of this system.
•
Message Type
: Specify the type of data message the
receiver will deliver on this port (ATOM, RTCM, CMR,
CMR+ or DBEN). Click on the “I” symbol to the right of
this field to read the details of the selected message type.
• After you have defined all the ports used, click on the
Configure
button to let the Web Server load all your new
parameters to the receiver. You have now reached the end
of the configuration phase.

password. This confirms the creation of your account.
