Overview
-
-h -
host_name or ip_address to connect to
default dgps.wsrcc.com
-
-p -
port_name or port_number to connect to on remote machine.
default number: 2101
default name: rtcm-sc104
-
-o -
output_tty
default: /dev/gps
-
-s -
tty_baudrate
default: 4800
-
-n -
nmea_tty
default: use output_tty
If set, use this tty for NMEA input and use output_tty for RTCM output. This option is needed by some oem GPS units with two tty connections.
-
-N -
nmea_baudrate
default: 4800
Not used unless nmea_tty specified.
-
-c -
nmea_logfile
default: no_logfile
Write an nmea logfile with the specified name.
-
-v -
verbosity_level
default: 0
Verbosity = 1 prints version number.
Verbosity = 2 prints a periodic accuracy and position report
Verbosity = 3 prints a per packet dot
Verbosity = 5 prints connection error msg.
Verbosity = 10 prints per-packet byte counts.
Verbosity = 11 prints nmea parser output.
-
-d -
Decode rtcm stream and turn off tty output by default. To run both decoder and tty output:
dgpsip -d -o /dev/gps
-
-4 -
force an ipv4 connection
-
-6 -
force an ipv6 connection
-
-t -
turn on SV track recording / picture mode.
-
-B -
turn off binary mode for the above picture mode.
Examples
dgpsip -d
If dgpsip can't connect to the server it sleeps and tries again a short time later. dgpsip uses an exponential back off so as to not overload a rebooting server.
