12.Selecting a DGPS Mode
Introduction
ProMark3 RTK can be operated in one of the following DGPS
modes:
1. None: No DGPS mechanism is used but differential cor-
rections from SBAS satellites (SBAS) will be used if
received by one or two of the ProMark3 GPS reception
channels.
2. Beacon: Differential corrections are received by the belt-
carried Magellan MobileMapper beacon. This unit is con-
nected to the ProMark3 or ProMark3 RTK via Bluetooth or
a serial cable.
3. Direct IP: Differential corrections are taken from the Inter-
net at a fixed IP address. They are routed to
ProMark3
RTK via a GSM/GPRS cell phone and Bluetooth.
4. NTRIP (=Networked Transport of RTCM via Internet Proto-
col): Same as Direct IP except that the DGPS correction
provider uses the NTRIP protocol to route correction data.
5. UHF: Only usable with a ProMark3 RTK base/rover configu-
ration to implement a UHF radio link between the base
and the rover. The corrections provided by the base are
RTCM 3.1 corrections.
6. Other RTCM Source: Differential corrections are received by
third-equipment delivering RTCM2.3 message types #1,
#3 and #9. This third equipment is connected to the
Promark3 or ProMark3 RTK via a serial cable or Bluetooth.
The table below summarizes the connection and identification
data needed when operating in the NTRIP or Direct IP mode.
