Status Bar and Units Used
The status bar is permanently displayed in the upper part of the Status or Configuration tab, giving the current operating status of the receiver. The content of the status bar is refreshed every one to two seconds.

Level |
Input signal level (0 to 100, or blank when Modem Status= Online) |
NTRIP Caster |
“off” or, if “On”, number of sources available (S:xx) and number of connected clients (,C:xxx) |
Column #6 |
|
Recording |
Raw data recording status (“On” or “Off”) |
Site Name |
Site name (4 characters) attached to logged data |
Memory |
Identification of memory used (“M” for internal, “U” for USB key)+ Number of free Megabytes on this memory. |
Column #7 |
|
Sessions |
Session status (“ON” “OFF”, “RECORDING”) |
Site Name |
Site name (4 characters) attached to data logged through sessions |
Memory |
Identification of memory used (“M” for internal, “U” for USB key)+ Number of free Megabytes on this memory. |
FTP Push |
Indicates whether the recorded raw data files are uploaded to an external FTP server (“On”) or not (“Off”). |
Column #8 |
|
Date |
Current date (YYYY-MM-DD) |
Time |
Current local or UTC time (hh:mm:ss) according to the setting below. |
Alarm report |
Blank area if no alarm has been detected. “Alarms” displayed if an alarm has been detected in the receiver, followed by the number of raised alarms, between brackets (x). A click on “Alarms” will open the Status-Alarms web page to list this or these alarms. |
To change the units, select your preference from the Units pane on the left-hand side of the Web Server window. This pane is visible in both the Status and Configuration tabs.
Distance Units
• Meters
• US Survey Feet
• International Feet
Angle Units
The possible formats for angles, including latitudes and longitudes, are the following:
• Degrees (Deg.)
• Degrees, minutes (Deg. Min.)
• Degrees, minutes, seconds (Deg. Min. Sec.)
The format of latitude and longitude depends on the chosen angle unit. The corresponding formats are described in the table below.
Angle Unit Used |
Latitude Format |
Longitude Format |
---|---|---|
Deg. |
DD.DDDDDDDD° N or DD.DDDDDDDD° S |
DDD.DDDDDDDD° E or DDD.DDDDDDDD° W |
Deg. Min. |
DD°MM.MMMMMM’ N or DD°MM.MMMMMM’ S |
DDD°MM.MMMMMM’ E or DDD°MM.MMMMMM’ W |
Deg. Min. Sec. |
DD°MM’ SS.SSSSS” N or DD°MM’ SS.SSSSS” S |
DDD°MM’ SS.SSSSS” E or DDD°MM’ SS.SSSSS” W |
Where:
• N for North, S for South; E for East, W for West
• “D..” for degree digits, “M..” for minute digits, “S..” for second digits
When typing in a latitude or longitude, leading and trailing zeroes can be omitted. Degree (°), minute (’) and second (”) symbols can be omitted as well.
For example, typing 5 6.45 N is a valid entry for 5° 06.450000’ N.
If you use the “Deg.” angle unit, you can use signs for directions:
• “-” sign for South (S) or West (W)
• No sign or “+” sign for North (N) or East (E)
Time Units
Time is always expressed in 24-hour format. You can choose between the following two options:
• UTC: UTC time provided by the receiver.
• Local: Local time derived from the UTC time provided by the receiver, taking into account the time zone read from the computer’s regional settings.
