CHAPTER 5. CONFIGURING ALTUS NR3 AS A BASE STATION
5.2.2 Connecting via Mobile Internet
The setup described in this section is represented schematically in Figure 5-6. The Base
station must be con
fi
gured as a server (IPS) in order to accept incoming connections on a
speci
fi
ed IP port. The Rover is con
fi
gured to request an IPR connection to the speci
fi
ed IP
address and port of the Base receiver in order to receive corrections.

Make sure that the cell modem of the Altus NR3 is connected. Section 4.2.1 details how
this can be done.
•
When the cellular modem is connected this will be indicated by an active green cellular
connection line in the
‘
Communication/Cellular

window as shown in Figure 5-7. Take
note of the IP address
indicated as it will be needed for the rover con

It is important to remember that with most mobile network providers, the assigned IP address of the cellular
modem in the Altus NR3 will be changed every time that a new connection is made. As such the Rover units will
need to be aware of the new IP address (some mobile network providers allow you to use Fixed IP addresses).
