• connecting to a remote or local receiver

• programming the data recording sessions and other parameters

• downloading the recorded data from the receiver external memory

• logging the real-time output from the receiver

• converting the downloaded data to the RINEX format

• emailing the download report

The following utilities comprise the backbone of remote33:

• rx/rz - Download data from the receiver via XMODEM/ZMODEM

• convert - Convert the R, U or L Ashtech files to B,E,S files

• teqc - Convert B,E,S Ashtech formats to RINEX

These utilities are tied together by the remote33.pl PERL script. This script can be customized to fit particular user needs.
