The parameters are the following.

 

Parameter

Designation

$PASHS

Site Name

Enter a 4-character string identifying the site where data recording will take place. The following charac­ters are not allowed in the site name: / * . \ ,

SIT

Storage

Tell the receiver where to store the recorded raw data. On selecting a memory device (Internal Mem­ory or USB Device), you can read, underneath the field, the amount of free memory currently available on the selected device.

Selecting the USB device implies that you know there is one currently connected to the receiver.

MEM

Recording and Output Eleva­tion Mask

Enter the elevation mask angle in degrees (0-90°). The data from all the satellites located in the eleva­tion mask, seen from the recording site, will not be recorded.

ELM

Data Type

A read-only field listing the type of raw data mes­sages currently set to be recorded by the receiver.

Data Recording

Set this option to enable raw data recording in the receiver right after you have clicked on the Config­ure button at the bottom of this page. You can also keep this option cleared and later start data record­ing by pressing the Log button on the receiver front panel.

REC

Recording In­terval

Enter the raw data recording rate, in seconds. De­pending on the installed firmware option, this value can range from 0.05 s, 0.1 s or 0.5 s to 999 s.

DRI

Ring File Mem­ory

Enabling this option will allow the receiver to delete the oldest record file when the memory used is al­most full (less than 15 Mbytes still free).

This will allow the receiver to constantly log data without external intervention. When this function is enabled/disabled for recording, it is as well for ses­sions.

RFM

Split Data into Preset Duration Files

Enable this option if you want the receiver to create a new file after every x minutes or hours of raw data recording, “x” been defined in the field below.

With this option disabled, raw data will be saved to a single file, with no limit of duration.

DRD

File Duration

(This field is visible only after ”Split Data into Preset Duration Files” has been enabled).

Indicate the time span that each new raw data file should cover before it is closed and a new one is open. For example setting this field to “15” means that at all times, the receiver will be able to provide a record file containing the last 15 minutes of raw data decoded by the receiver.
