Trimble PivotTM Platform, version 3.5.7
This software update for Trimble® Pivot™ Platform (TPP) contains all changes since the release of version 3.5.0. The following document gives you an overview of the changes.

Real-Time Output
The Real-Time Output (RTO) might have showed significant delays in correction data output in case a Network DGPS Processor was in use and if a large number of users were connected to the respective DGPS VRS RTO. This issue has been fixed.

Trimble PivotTM Platform, version 3.5.6
Network Processor
The Network-RTK Processor might have showed information about having "exceeds the number of licensed stations" although a sufficient license is available. This potentially misleading information has been removed.  

NMEA Decoder
The handling of NMEA strings in GGA format has been improved. If the time stamp arrived with three decimal digits the NMEA sentence is still accepted as valid.

Ephemeris Manager 
The Ephemeris Manager allows writing hourly or daily RINEX orbit data into specified folders. Having this feature enabled both the week number and the Ionospheric/Delta-UTC values in the RINEX file header now show values of the time in accordance to when the file has been written.

Real-Time Output
The property setting “Check for closest PBS regularly” might have caused repeating loss of a fix on the rover side in areas with overlapping sub networks. This issue has been fixed.

GNSS Receiver
BINEX decoder type support has been added for Topcon receivers. 

GNSS Receiver / Real-Time Output
Support of GPS L1 Enhance Cross Correlation has been added in BINEX input as well as in RINEX 3.x output.

RTX-PP Engine
The selection "Philippine Sea" as tectonic plate on the RTX-PP Engine might have caused incorrect data processing. The respective workflow has been reworked.

Trimble PivotTM Platform, version 3.5.5
GNSS Receiver 

This software update introduces changes in the geostationary BeiDou satellite signal decoding. It ensures the correct decoding of BeiDou observables of Trimble receivers having the latest firmware version 4.93 or later installed. 

Note:
If station data are exchanged via RTCM 3.2 MSM between different installations Trimble Pivot Platform needs to run on version 3.5.5 or later on both sides. Only this way geostationary BeiDou satellite signals can successfully be processed at the client side(s). 

Reference Data Shop
With the release of the Trimble Online Processing App (software update 3.5.4) additional antenna information have been introduced. This software update 3.5.5 takes this change into account and avoids any issues when using the Reference Data Shop for VRS orders. 

Router/GNSS Receiver

The use of the “Dynamic port number” setting by Router and GNSS Receiver modules has been adjusted to accommodate the reload of a system configuration. Trimble Pivot Platform now verifies that all modules using this feature are properly reloaded. 

Real-Time Output

•	RTCM 2.3 DGNSS 

Trimble Pivot Platform has been stabilized in a way that receivers always produce a code-corrected solution both for GLONASS and GPS satellites when using a RTCM 2.3 DGNSS correction stream. 

•	ITRF Current Offsets

The calculated offset between ITRF current epoch and reference epoch of a VRS position now matches the way the receiver firmware uses the offsets. This enhancement applies to CMRx correction data streams and increases the performance at the rover side in case of using the xFill technology.

•	RTCM 3.2 MSM 

The output of correction data in RTCM 3.2 MSM format has been enhanced and improves the performance of rover. 

•	Change of PBS

If a RTONet module is linked to a Network Processor that runs in DGPS mode it is now ensured that correction data for all processed satellites are always streamed also in case of a switch of the closest Physical Base Station (PBS).

Ephemeris Manager

The optional feature of writing almanac data as almanac files has been reworked to the effect that a continuous storage is guaranteed. 

Reference Frame

Trimble Pivot Platform now offers CGCS2000 as an additional reference frame.

Network Processor
The Network Processor has been stabilized under conditions where the ionosphere activity is high. This means no station is excluded anymore from network processing because its position is mistakenly considered as inaccurate. 	

Trimble PivotTM Platform, version 3.5.4
Trimble Online Processing App

This software update includes the release of a new App called Trimble Online Processing (TOP) App. The Trimble Online Processing App allows field users to upload rover observation data to a web-based service in order to receive post-processed positions. The final results are derived from adjusted baselines that are processed against reference stations of your local network. 
TOP is based on the Trimble Pivot Platform which provides a scalable architecture to accommodate operations ranging in size from a single base station to multi-station Real-Time Networks (RTN).
Make use of the following benefits:
•	Simplified access via easily usable Web Interface
•	Straight forward configuration on TPP server side
•	Automatic calculation of high-accurate coordinates 
•	Support of all commonly used GNSS system 
•	Results based on local reference station network
•	Automatic reporting via mail
•	Full support of TPP Accounting functionalities

For additional information on the new TOP App please refer to the Technical Notes that are available at http://www.trimble.com/infrastructure/.
If you are interested in the new Trimble Online Processing App please contact your Trimble sales representative. 
Note: 
After this software update 3.5.4 has been applied, please run and finish the Trimble Pivot Platform Setup Control once without doing any modifications. This additional step is required to ensure that your system is fully set up to benefit from all new features and functionalities introduced with this software update. 

Trimble PivotTM Platform, version 3.5.3
Reference Data Shop
The zipping mechanism of the Reference Data Shop in advance of an order delivery has been revised for a smoother workflow.  

Ephemeris Storage
The storage of ephemeris information (RINEX format 3.02) for Galileo satellites has been improved.
This applies to both the Storage and Ephemeris Manager modules.

Ionosphere Activity Module
The check for the age of information coming from the GNSS receiver modules, the Atmosphere Watch modules and the Network Processor modules is more robust now and a warning message is shown if data are detected as too old.

RTX Engine
QZSS satellite processing support in the RTX Engine is now more stable. 

Network Processor (Sparse VRS)

The selection of a processing mode for an RTONet module has been realized now when inserting the module below a network processor that is running in sparse VRS mode.

Trimble PivotTM Platform, version 3.5.2
GNSS Receiver 
The verification of the tectonic plate selection has been reworked in connection with inserting a GNSS Receiver module and selecting a certain station that has previously been copied via the system properties. 

Atmosphere Watch 
Changes to the properties of an Atmosphere Watch module that is currently post processing is more stable now.

User Interface
The User Interface has been enhanced to reduce its response time and to run smoother on large systems consisting of several servers.

Trimble PivotTM Platform, version 3.5.1
RTO Net
The RTO Net module now includes an additional property setting that also allows accepting NMEA strings with 00:00:00 as time stamp.

Local Transformation
Local transformation within the RTO Net module is now shifting the coordinate of the closest physical base station (PBS) based on the transformation parameters. This applies to all formats including PBS messages. In addition, the robustness of Trimble Pivot Platform in conjunction with using local transformation has increased.
Azure Databases
Trimble Pivot Platform has been aligned to further warrant the interrelation with Microsoft® Azure™ databases. 

Master Setup
The Master Setup has been improved to make the loading process smoother and to reduce the response time. This is especially beneficial with lager systems.

Ntrip Caster
The mountpoint settings at the Ntrip Caster module properties have been updated and now make all the latest satellite navigation systems available for selection.
Synchronizer
Reloading the configuration on a distributed environment consisting of several servers has been enhanced. This has a positive impact especially on the interaction between the Synchronizer and associated modules like the RTK and RTX™ Engine. 

Weather Condition
The download logic of radiosonde data has been re-worked. The increased accuracy of download verification reduces the traffic on a system significantly.
