TAIP Emulation Configuration
The TAIP emulation functionality allows the PinPoint X to
operate in a limited manner with clients which only under‐
stand the Trimble ASCII Interface Protocol (TAIP).This
emulation is enabled by setting the GPS report format,
directing the modem to listen for TAIP messages, and
disabling RAP formatted messages to the same interface.
TAIP ID
TAIP messages can be configured to send the user specified
identification number (ID). This greatly enhances the
functional capability of the unit in a network environment. Set
the ID using *PPTAIPID.

your preferred TAIP data format.
