Using Serial Commands

display the Receiver Identification screen. The IP address
is shown in the lower line.

• Enter the chosen IP port number (default: 8888) in the

Port number field.

• Click

OK. You get the following reply from the connected

receiver:

Welcome!
You are connected to the Ashtech receiver (SN:xxxxxxxxx). Please send the
command $PASHS,TCP,UID,, to enter the login and the
password
>

• Before you type the requested command, make the

following settings in HyperTerminal:

– In the HyperTerminal menu bar, select

File>Properties.

Click on the

Settings tab.

– Click on the

ASCII Setup button.

– Enable the following two options:

Send line ends with line

feeds and Echo typed characters locally. This will
automatically complete all your command lines with
characters and allow you to see in real time
the commands you are typing.

– Click

OK twice to close the Properties window.

• Now you can type the requested $PASHS,TCP,UID

command. You need to know the login and password of the
receiver you are trying to connect to. If your login and
password are correct, the receiver will return the following
response:

$PASHR,TCP,OK*1B

You are then allowed to send all possible $PASH
commands. Note however that you cannot change the
login and password through a TCP/IP connection, using
the $PASHS,TCP,PAR command. This is only possible
locally through a serial or Bluetooth connection.

When authentication is required, you cannot send
commands until the login and password have been
provided to the receiver. The receiver will however output
data through this connection without prior authentication
if it has been configured to output data on port I.
