This command specifies the information the NTRIP client or server needs to connect to an
NTRIP caster. If no configuration information is specified, the current settings will be displayed.
The majority of the data which follows is supplied by the NTRIP hosting agent.
Command:
[NTRIPCONFIG] {Caster name} {Caster port} {Mountpoint} {Username} {Password}
{NMEA GGA} {Autoconnect} {Correction port} {Authentication}
Parameter
Definition
Caster name
Keyword that specifies the name of the NTRIP caster to connect to. This may be
specified as an IP address (e.g., “69.44.86.66”) or a URL (e.g., “rtgpsout.unavco.org”).
Caster port
Keyword that specifies the caster port number to connect to
Mountpoint
Keyword that specifies the name of the mount point to connect to
Username
Username, if required for authentication
Password
Password, if required for authentication
NMEA GGA
Whether or not the NTRIP server requires the transmission of the GNSS receiver NMEA
GGA sentence as part of the NTRIP handshake
Autoconnect
Keyword that indicates whether or not the NTRIP should try to automatically connect to
a caster at power-on or when idle. The unit can be configured to not connect, to connect
as a client, or to connect as a server.
Correction port
Keyword that indicates whether to use an Ethernet port or a mobile cellular modem to
connect to the caster.
Authentication
Keyword that indicates whether to use BASIC or DIGEST authentication, or let the unit
select AUTO.
Prior to software version 3.0.9.0, only BASIC authentication was possible. To fully
support NTRIP2.0, the unit will handle DIGEST authentication. If the user selects either
AUTO or DIGEST, the unit will determine which method the server will use. If the server
returns 401 with “WWW-Authenticate:
DIGEST or BASIC, the unit will connect using the appropriate Authentication method. If
BASIC is selected, the unit will only attempt to connect to BASIC.
The modem must be connected to COM2.
