request automatic reports, the remote reports are sent to the desti-
nation address (*PPIP) and destination port (*PPPORT).
b.
Set the GPS Report Type, *PPGPSR, to your preferred
TAIP data format.

Local Connection
Some TAIP client applications can send TAIP requests and
listen for reports using a local connection. Generally this is
done over the serial port using PPP. This can also be done over
the USB virtual serial port using PPP.
The PinPoint X will listen for TAIP requests on the local IP
address and port. Once a TAIP request command has been
received, the PinPoint Xt will begin issuing TAIP reports to the
local IP address and port 21000. The client application should
be listening for reports on this IP address and port. No
unsolicited reports will be sent from the PinPoint to the local
client application.
To configure this local TAIP reporting, you will need to set
four commands: *PPIP, S53, *PPGPSR, and *PPLATS.
a.
Set the port (S53) to the local port to which you want
the reports sent, 21000 is the common setting. S53, in
AceManager, is part of the Misc group.
