GNSS Input #1 . A TNC coaxial female connector [2] allowing
you to connect a GNSS antenna to the receiver via a coaxial
cable.

Serial Data Ports. These are all Fischer, seven-contact, female
connectors, each allowing a serial connection to an external
device.

• Ports F [3] and B [4] are both RS232-only ports

• RS232/422 Port A [5] is a switchable RS232/RS422 port

(Default is RS232).

As an option (installed at the factory), port A also delivers
a regulated DC power voltage between pin 1 (+12 V DC)
and pin 2 (GND) that can be used to power a connected
device. The DC current available is 0.5 A steady state, and
1.0 A peak.

UHF Input. A TNC coaxial female connector [6] allowing you to
connect a radio whip antenna. This connector is available
only if the ProFlex 800 has been fitted with a radio module.
(Connector [6] is missing from the rear view above.)

Warning! Do not confuse this coaxial input with the GNSS
input [2] below. Connecting a GNSS antenna to the UHF
input might damage it if the embedded UHF transmitter is
used (although the transmitter is not supposed to transmit
until there are enough GNSS satellites received).

Ethernet Port. A Fischer, seven-contact female connector [7]
allowing you to connect the ProFlex 800 to a local network
(LAN). Through this connector, you may remotely control and
monitor the ProFlex 800 from any computer connected to the
Internet. Data may also flow through this port, in the same
way as through a serial port.
