GNNS Spider / Remote Access
Overview
By default, no port on the GR/GM receivers is open for remote access from any OWI software. In order to allow OWI access, a port
must be defined and opened.
The OWI software can then change the receiver configuration and define and start data streams and a logging session.
In order to use any non-Leica OWI software with a GR/GM receiver, an option key is required.
Spider and remote access
The Receiver setup: Spider and remote access page lists all ports on the GR/GM receiver that are open for any OWI based tool to
connect to the instrument and change the settings via OWI commands.
The page also allows creating new OWI ports and editing or deleting configured ports.
Access to the GR/GM receiver can be configured via
• TCP/IP server connection
• TCP/IP client connection
• Serial port
• Modem
• Radio
It is also possible to connect a GR/GM receiver to the GNSS Spider site server via a USB or Bluetooth PAN connection. In this case, the
connection will be handled like a network connection via an Ethernet cable.
Please see the chapter Spider and remote access: Overview for more detailed information on how to configure a remote access.
Licensing
Leica GNSS Spider users do not need a license to connect the GR/GM receiver as an active site to the Leica GNSS Spider software.
Requirements
• GR10/30: Leica GNSS Spider v4.0 or later must be installed.
