Description
In order to get access to the Internet, an IP
address is required. This IP address identifies
the instrument in the Internet. This option
should only be checked if a static IP address
is available for the instrument.
The IP address to get access to the Internet
is provided by the network provider perma-
nently. Each time the instrument wants to
access the Internet using the device the
same IP address identifies the instrument.
This behaviour is important if the instrument
is used as a TCP/IP server.
Available if Use static IP address is
checked. To set the IP address.
Available for GS internet connection on the
base.
To configure a dynamic DNS service. This set-
ting provides access to the RTK data stream
of a GS base server while it is using a
dynamic IP address. The setting allows TCP/IP
clients to use an Internet domain name to
address a GS with a dynamic IP address.
Use case: A GS is set up in base mode with
an Internet connection using GPRS. The GS
has a different IP address every time the
Internet connection is established or after
running for a certain time. The GS checks
every 12 min if its IP address has changed. If
so, the GS updates the DynDNS settings.
Refer to 18.2.2 DynDNS for more information
about DynDNS.
