INSALIGNCONFIG

Configure ALIGN Parameters for SPAN Receiver

Platform:

OEM719, OEM729, OEM7500, OEM7600, OEM7700, OEM7720, PwrPak7, CPT7, CPT7700, SMART7-S

Use the INSALIGNCONFIG command to configure ALIGN for a SPAN base receiver to a secondary rover receiver. The command will configure the port on the base and rover and setup corrections at the desired rate. It also attempts to re-establish these corrections should they stop.

Important

This command must be used to define the ALIGN communication between the receivers that SPAN is to configure.
When using ICOM ports, the Ethernet settings on the SPAN base and rover receiver must be manually configured.
The base and rover ports must be the same interface type (i.e. Serial to Serial or Ethernet to Ethernet).
The INSALIGNCONFIG command can be used to set the output rate for dual antenna receivers (e.g. OEM7720). In these cases, the port configuration fields are ignored.

Field	Field Type	ASCII Value	Binary Value	Description	Format	Binary Bytes	Binary Offset
1	Command header	-	-	INSALIGNCONFIG header This field contains the command name for abbreviated ASCII or the message header for ASCII (see page 1) or Binary (see page 1).	-	H	0
2	baseport	NOPORT	0	Specify which COM port on the base receiver to use to communicate with an external ALIGN capable receiver. Selecting NOPORT disables automatic dual antenna configuration.	Enum	4	H
		COM1	1
		COM2	2
		COM3	3
		COM4	19
		COM5	31
		ICOM1	23
		ICOM2	24
		ICOM3	25
		ICOM4	29
		ICOM5	46
		ICOM6	47
		ICOM7	48
3	roverport	COM1	1	Specify which rover COM port is connected to the base receiver (Default = COM2)	Enum	4	H+4
		COM2	2
		COM3	3
		COM4	19
		COM5	31
		ICOM1	23
		ICOM2	24
		ICOM3	25
		ICOM4	29
		ICOM5	46
		ICOM6	47
		ICOM7	48
4	baudrate	57600, 115200, 230400, or 460800		Baud rate for communication (Default = 230400)	Ulong	4	H+8
5	outputrate	1, 2, 4, 5, 10		The data rate, in Hz, in which ALIGN will be output (Default = 1 Hz)	Ulong	4	H+12
6	Reserved	Reserved (Default = 0) If entering, use the default value.			Ulong	4	H+16

The SPAN filter only requires ALIGN updates at 1 Hz. Increasing the output rate (using the outputrate field) does not increase performance, it only provides ALIGN logs at higher rates.
