Step 2: Choose your mount point
Polaris automatically connects your device with the closest reference station, so there are no per-station mount points. Instead we have two mount points for selecting the desired reference frame datum.
Most people will connect to the POLARIS mount point. This uses the ITRF2014 global datum which is supported by most current generation devices.
Older devices, especially survey devices, expect a regional datum like NAD83. In this case, use the POLARIS_LOCAL mount point. An appropriate local datum is automatically applied based on your location. See our local datums table for details.
Step 3: Configure Your Device
- Enter the caster address based on your region per Step 1
- Choose port 2101
- Choose either POLARIS or POLARIS_LOCAL per Step 2
- Enable “Send NMEA/GGA position”
