file is found. These actions are: Do not perform any checks (NO CHECK), issue a warning
message but write the corresponding Bernese observation file (WARNING), issue a warning
message and skip the conversion of the affected RINEX file (SKIP), or stop with an error
message (ERROR).
The available verifications are:
• The “Station name” (see setting in option “Gather station names from” in panel “RXOBV3 2:
Input Options 1” and Section 4.2.3.2) is compared with the OLD STATION NAME in the
station information file (section TYPE 001: RENAMING OF STATIONS, wildcards allowed)
and translated to theNEW STATION NAME even if the option is set to NO CHECK.
All following checks refer to the new name of the station.
If the option “Try also filename” is activated and the station name is not found in the
station information file the procedure is repeated using the 4-character ID from the
RINEX filename. This option is futile if the option “Gather station names from” is already
set to FILE NAME.
If the station name cannot be found in the station information file the station name
is used as it is and the action specified for the inconsistency of the “Station name” is
executed.
• “Receiver/antenna type”: The entries for the REC TYPE and ANT TYPE in the RINEX
observation file are compared with the RECEIVER TYPE and ANTENNA TYPE in the
station information file (section TYPE 002: STATION INFORMATION). The string
“*** UNDEFINED ***” suppresses the test.
