VBOX Sigma - Quick Start Guide
VBOX Sigma (RLVBSIGMA) is a cost-effective, RTK
enabled 10 Hz data logger with integrated NTRIP
modem. Its multi-constellation, multi-frequency GNSS
engine offers outstanding performance even in areas
with poor and multi-path satellite coverage. When used
in conjunction with an RTK base station or NTRIP
correction service, VBOX Sigma is accurate to within a
centimetre and is the ideal reference for ground truth.
The in-built NTRIP modem makes it easy to receive RTK
correction messages from an NTRIP network, either via
Wi-Fi or a 4G cellular connection. In order to use this
type of correction you have to register and subscribe to
a cellular data plan with your local NTRIP provider, such
as Topnet in the UK and Germany, Swepos in Sweden
or Unavco in the USA.
Configuration is made via a Wi-Fi access point and
the front screen will display status and connection
information.
