Global Positioning System (GPS)

TAIP Emulation Configuration

The TAIP emulation functionality allows the PinPoint‐E to operate in a limited manner with clients which only under‐ stand the Trimble ASCII Interface Protocol (TAIP).This emulation is enabled by setting the GPS report format, directing the modem to listen for TAIP messages, and disabling RAP formatted messages to the same interface.

TAIP ID

TAIP messages can be configured to send the user specified identification number (ID). This greatly enhances the functional capability of the unit in a network environment. Set the ID using *PPTAIPID.

TAIP Command Emulation

With TAIP emulation, the PinPoint‐E will listen for TAIP messages on port 21000. Set the GPS Report Type, *PPGPSR, to your preferred TAIP data format.

Caution: When TAIP emulation is enabled, RAP will be disabled and no RAP messages or commands will be sent or received on that port.
