Identity

This page shows information about the identity of the receiver.

Select Receiver Status / Identity.

 

Receiver Type – Shows the receiver model.

System Name – Provides a way to distinguish between receivers. In the System Name field at the bottom of the screen, enter a logical name to identify the receiver such as "Rxr".

Serial Number – Shows the serial number of the receiver. This number is unique for the receiver model, so a combination of serial number and model is unique across all Trimble receivers. This is the most reliable way to identify a specific receiver.

MAC Address (Ethernet) – Shows the ethernet MAC (Media Access Control) address, which is an ethernet hardware address that uniquely identifies each device on a network. The receiver has a unique address and you can use it to distinguish between multiple receivers on a network.

Ethernet IP v4 Address – Shows the ethernet IP address assigned to the receiver. This address is used to connect to the receiver using the ethernet port. This address may be static, or it may change over time (DHCP), depending on the ethernet configuration of the receiver. See Ethernet IPv4 Configuration.

DNS IPv4 Address – Shows the IP address of the DNS server.

Secondary DNS IPv4 Address – Shows the IP address of the secondary DNS server.

Ethernet IPv6 Address – Displays one or more global unicast IPv6 addresses assigned to the receiver when it is connected to a router that supports IPv6 services. See Ethernet IPv6 Configuration.

Ethernet Link-local IPv6 Address – Shows the IPv6 link-local address. See Ethernet IPv6 Configuration.

DNS resolved name – Shows the DNS (Domain Name System) name, which is an alternate way of addressing the receiver on the network. The name is used as an alias for the Ethernet IP. It is a combination of the System Name and Domain, which are specified in the Network Configuration menu menu.

Zeroconf/mDNS address – Shows the address used for the hardware when Zero Configuration service discovery (mDNS/DNS-SD) is enabled and in use.

MMC Card ID – ID of the multimedia card.

MAC Address (Bluetooth) – Shows the Bluetooth hardware address that uniquely identifies each device of a network. The receiver has a unique address and can be used to distinguish between multiple receivers on a network.

Bluetooth PAN IP Address – Shows the IP address used by the Network Access Point (NAP) service of the Bluetooth PAN (Personal area Network) profile. When a device is paired to the receiver using Bluetooth wireless technology and the Access Point service is connected, the device can open the receiver web interface on this IP. The default address is 192.168.143.1.

Firmware Version – Identifies the current software version running on the receiver. Usually this will be the same as the Core Engine version unless some additional functionality has been added that is independent of the core receiver operation.

Core Engine Version – Identifies the current core software running on the receiver. This information is used to determine if more recent firmware is available from Trimble, and also to identify the firmware if you need to contact Trimble Support. Receiver firmware is loaded using the Install New Firmware menu. On the receiver, this field is shown as "Version".

Firmware Date – Identifies the date that the current software running on the receiver was released.

Reference Week # – Represents the full GPS week number since the 1st epoch (06 January 1980). See https://geodesy.noaa.gov/CORS/resources/gpscals.shtml.

RTX Version – Identifies the current version of the RTX engine. Used for troubleshooting with technical support.

RTK Version – Identifies the current version of the RTK engine. Used for troubleshooting with technical support.

HP/XP Firmware Version – Identifies the current OmniSTAR HP/XP version on the receiver. Used for troubleshooting with technical support.

VBS Firmware Version – Identifies the current OmniSTAR VBS version on the receiver. Used for troubleshooting with technical support.

Monitor Version – Identifies the current monitor version on the receiver.

Antenna Database Version – Identifies the current Antenna database version installed on the receiver.

Hardware Version – Identifies the hardware version of the receiver.

T0x Library Version – May be requested by Trimble Support to help resolve an issue.
