 Button 'Add Streams' opens a window that allows user to select data streams from an NTRIP broadcaster according to their mountpoints.

 <p>
 <u>No window mode:</u> When operating BNC online in 'no window' mode (command line option -nw), you force BNC to reread its 'mountPoints' configuration option from disk at pre-defined intervals. Select '1 min', '1 hour', or '1 day' as 'Reread configuration' option to reread the 'mountPoints' option every full minute, hour, or day. This lets a 'mountPoints' option edited in between in the configuration file become effective without terminating uninvolved threads. See annexed section 'Configuration Example' for a configuration file example and a list of other on-the-fly changeable options.

+<p><a name="streamip"><h4>3.12.10 Add Streams - Coming from TCP/IP Port</h4></p>
+<p>
+BNC allows to retrieve streams via TCP directly from an IP address without using the NTRIP transport protocol. For that you:
+<ul>
+<li>Enter the IP address of the stream providing host.</li>
+<li>Enter the port number of the stream providing host.</li>
+<li>Specify a mountpoint. Recommended is a 4-character reference station ID. Example: FFMJ</li>
+<li>Specify the stream format. Available options are 'RTCM_2', 'RTCM_3', 'RTIGS', and 'ZERO'.</li>
+<li>Enter the approximate latitude of the stream providing rover in degrees. Example: 45.32.</li>
+<li>Enter the approximate longitude of the stream providing rover in degrees. Example: -15.20.</li>
+</ul>
+</p>
+<p>
+Streams directly received via TCP/IP port show up with an 'N' for 'No NTRIP' in the 'Streams' canvas section on BNC's main window . Latitude and longitude are to be entered just for informal reasons.
