Introduction
GSM Antenna
A coaxial female connector (SMA type) allowing you to 
connect a GSM whip antenna to the ProMark 800.
Radio Antenna
A coaxial female connector (TNC type) allowing you to 
connect a radio whip antenna to the ProMark 800. This 
connector is available only if the ProMark 800 has been fitted 
with a radio module.
Radio Module
A module allowing ProMark 800 to receive and process 
corrections from a base. When a radio module is used, a radio 
antenna must be connected (see above). When no radio 
receiver kit is delivered, a single compartment door is 
provided instead, with no connector on it.
USB Port
A nine-contact female connector (Fischer type). Depending 
on how it is configured, the USB port can be used in two 
different ways:
1. For a USB host such as a mass storage device. In this
case, you should use the special adaptor cable provided 
(P/N 702103) to attach the USB key to the ProMark 800. 
This configuration can be used to log raw data on the USB 
key or upgrade the ProMark 800 firmware from the files 
stored on the key.
2. For a USB device allowing ProMark 800 to be seen as a
disk from the computer connected to this port. In this 
configuration, files can be transferred between the 
ProMark 800’s internal memory and the computer using 
the USB cable provided (P/N 702104).
RS232/422 Serial Port
A seven-contact female connector (Fischer type) allowing you 
to connect the ProMark 800 to an external device via an 
RS232 or RS422 serial line (default: RS232). Changing the 
configuration of the port can be done from the field terminal 
using the $PASHS,MDP serial command. See MDP: Setting 
Port A to RS232 or RS422 on page 198.
Bluetooth Device
An integrated Bluetooth module allowing the ProMark 800 to 
communicate with a Bluetooth-enabled field terminal 
through a wireless connection.
