How do I change the PPP Mode of the LD8?

Where available Quantum should be used for all LD8 configuration. This article will explain how to change the LD8 PPP mode using either Quantum or Web user interface (Webui).

VERIPOS offers two PPP services, Ultra and Apex. Both allow for decimetre accuracy positioning, have no range limitations and can be used globally. Note: Users should ensure that the  configured PPP mode matches the service activated by the Helpdesk for the LD8. Also note changing the PPP Mode will restart the PPP computation. Upon change the PPP solution will require time to re-converge. During the re-convergence a Standard or Standard2 computation will be used, until the PPP solution is available

Changing PPP Mode using Quantum

In the Quantum main screen select SETTINGS. Navigate to System Configuration > Receiver Management > Edit:

Within the Receiver Management - Edit page select the Position tab,  the PPP - Mode submenu will be displayed:

Select the PPP Mode and the click on Apply, which is found at the bottom right-hand side of the page.

Changing PPP Mode using the WebUI

The LD8 WebUI can be accessed with the latest version of Explorer, Chrome or Firefox. Browse to the IP address of the LD8. If the IP address is unknown refer to the guide How do I find my LD8 IP address?

The WebUI terminal can be accessed by navigating to Tools > Terminal. To verify the configured PPP mode enter the command:

LOG PPPSOURCE

The output will be similar to the below example, the active PPP mode is highlighted in red:

<OK

< PPPSOURCE WCOM1_30 0 64.5 UNKNOWN 0 2.310 02002020 ae45 14970
 < APEX
 [WCOM1]

To change the PPP mode from APEX to ULTRA enter the following command:

PPPSOURCE ULTRA

Alternatively, to change the PPP mode from ULTRA to APEX enter the following:

PPPSOURCE APEX

Once changes have been made enter SAVECONFIG.
