Receiving Corrections on page45. This requires using the INTERFACEMODE command to ded-
icate one direction of a serial port to one message type only. When the INTERFACEMODE com-
mand is used to change the mode from the NOVATEL default, the NovAtel format messages can
no longer be used.
To mix NovAtel format messages and RTCMV3 messages on the same port, leave the interface
mode set to NOVATEL and log out variants of the standard correction messages with a NovAtel
header. ASCII or binary variants can be requested by appending an A or B to the standard mes-
sage name. For example, on the base station:
interfacemode com2 novatel novatel
fix position 51.11358042 -114.04358013 1059.4105
log com2 rtcm1004b ontime 2
1.
Interface mode must be set to NOVATEL for the receiver to issue logs with an A or B
suffix.
2.
Using the receiver in NOVATEL mode consumes more CPU bandwidth than using the
native differential messages as shown in Base Station Configuration on page46.

To find information on how to send multiple commands and log requests from a com-
puter, search our knowledge database available at www.novatel.com/support/.
At the rover, leave the interface mode default settings (interfacemode com2 novatel novatel).
The rover recognizes the default and uses the corrections it receives with a NovAtel header.
The PSRDIFFSOURCE command and RTKSOURCE command set the station ID values that
identify the base stations to accept pseudorange or RTK corrections from. They are useful com-
mands when the rover station is receiving corrections from multiple base stations.
3.5 ALIGN Heading Master and Remote Configurations
ALIGN technology combines two or more receivers to generate high precision heading and pitch
angles between two receivers for real-time navigation
This section provides instructions for setting up a master station with an ALIGN capable rover
receiver for applications that require heading output. Refer to APN-048 ALIGN Overview and
Setup, available at www.novatel.com/support/
