HYPACK

Connect a GNSS device in HYPACK to RTK Premium corrections over NTRIP.

These steps connect a GNSS device in HYPACK hydrographic survey software to the Premium Positioning correction network over NTRIP. They assume you already have your NTRIP credentials.

Before you start

  • Your NTRIP username and password, from your Premium Positioning welcome email or your account in the XYZ Platform.

  • No account yet? Start a 14-day free trial to get your credentials.

  • Your GNSS device configured in HYPACK Hardware.

  • A working internet connection on the survey computer.

  • A clear view of the sky at the GNSS antenna.

Network settings

These are the same for every Premium Positioning customer. Only your username and password are unique to you.

  • Server or host: rtkpremium.xyz

  • Port: 2101

  • Mountpoint: COMMON

  • Protocol: NTRIP

Steps

  1. Configure the GNSS driver: In HYPACK Hardware, configure the driver for your GNSS device.

  2. Open the NTRIP client settings: Set up the NTRIP client for your GNSS device.

  3. Enter the caster address and port: Enter rtkpremium.xyz as the caster and 2101 as the port.

  4. Enter your NTRIP username and password: Type your own credentials exactly as they appear in your welcome email. They are case-sensitive and unique to your account.

  5. Set the mountpoint: Enter COMMON as the mountpoint.

  6. Forward GGA to the caster: Make sure GGA is forwarded to the caster so the network receives your approximate position.

  7. Confirm a fixed solution: Confirm a fixed RTK solution before you start the survey.

If the fix will not hold

NTRIP setup differs between HYPACK versions and GNSS drivers, so match the nearest equivalent for your configuration. Keep the survey computer online for the whole survey. If the solution will not reach or hold a fixed RTK solution, check that GGA reaches the caster, then recheck the caster address, the port, the COMMON mountpoint and your credentials.
