The receivers have an ethernet port so that the receiver can connect to an ethernet network. You can use the ethernet network to access, configure, and monitor the receiver. You can also configure the receiver using the Trimble API over RS-232, USB, or ethernet connections. The API enables you to send commands to the receiver to set configurations, query the receiver for current status, and return current satellite tracking and positioning data. Receivers can also be configured using the Application File packets.

For examples of how to set up the receiver, see OEM GNSS receiver setup.
