- Switch on the external device providing RTCM corrections
data.
If you want to use COM1 on MobileMapper CE to commu-
nicate with the external device, connect the adequate
serial cable between the two units.
, then Programs>GPS Utilities>DGPS Configuration
- Tap on
- Tap on the Select Mode button
- In the Select Differential Mode window, enable the Other
RTCM Source option. The Settings window opens to let you
configure the connection to the external source.
- In the Port field, on top of the screen, set the port through
which you will communicate with the external device. By
default, two ports are available:
• COM1, the only "physical" COM port available on the
MobileMapper CE. Note that COM1 will not be availa-
ble from the list if it's used by another application
• COM3, a Bluetooth port that is automatically set at
power on (see also Local Services on page 52).
Note that the Update button allows you to update the list of
available ports attached to the Port field. When selecting
Other RTCM Source and tapping OK, this update function is
automatically run so you don't need to tap this button.
Typically, you need to use this button after you have
changed the virtual port in Bluetooth Manager and the
Settings window is already open.
- Tap the Configuration button to edit or view the settings of
the selected port. A Test button allows you to test the
availability of the port.
- Tap OK to close the Port Configuration window. This takes
you back to the Setting window.
- On this screen, set the Real-Time Correction Age Limit
parameter (see recommendations on page 63)
- Tap OK and then Connect.
