Questions
What is the Trimble NetR9 GNSS reference receiver?
The Trimble® NetR9® GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System)
reference receiver is a fully-featured, top-of-the-line receiver that
provides maximum features and functionality from a single piece
of hardware.
What are the primary functions of this reference receiver?
The NetR9 GNSS receiver offers the most advanced solution for
campaign, Continuously Operating Reference Station (CORS), or
monitoring use. It can track, store, and feed data to other Trimble software programs such as GPSNet™, RTKNet™,
VRS3Net™, Integrity Manager™, 4D Control™, or Charisma™ software for the MSK industry. This receiver also
supports advanced options such as rover integrity and the various storage integrity functions offered by Trimble
network software.
Is the NetR9 GNSS reference receiver compatible with network software packages?
Yes. Using the RT27 format, this receiver can be connected to Trimble software platforms for maximum
functionality. In addition, it can be connected to third-party software packages that accept observations in the
industry standard format of RTCM version 3.x.
Can I add the NetR9 GNSS reference receiver to my existing CORS network?
Yes. The NetR9 Ti-1 / Ti-2 / Ti-3 receiver models are all suited to CORS network operation. The NetR9 Ti-M is
reserved for dedicated monitoring applications.
What applications can benefit from the NetR9 GNSS reference receiver?
The NetR9 receiver can be used in existing networks or new network installations. It supports the most demanding
applications for the earth science, surveying, construction, mapping, and Geographic Information System (GIS) and
agricultural industries.

How does the NetR9 GNSS reference receiver compare to other Trimble Infrastructure reference receivers and/or reference stations?
The NetR9 reference receiver is available in four configurations, the NetR9 Ti-1 (fully featured), the NetR9 Ti-2 and
Ti-3 (fully upgradable), and the NetR9 Ti-M (not upgradable).
Any option that is not part of the standard Ti-2 or Ti-3 packages may be upgraded at any time to enable
functionality, increase memory, or increase logging rates, to a maximum equal to that of the NetR9 Ti-1 offering.
The NetR9 Ti-M variant is intended for Monitoring applications. As such, the NetR9 Ti-M is not supported by all
software packages and no upgrades are available for this configuration.
The enabled options of each package are as follows:
