 <p><h4>B - 4.1 Wait for Full Epoch - optional</h4></p>
 <p>
-When feeding a real-time GNSS engine waiting for input epoch by epoch, BNC ignores whatever is received later then 'Wait for full epoch' seconds. A value of 3 to 5 seconds may be an appropriate choice for that, depending on the latency of the incoming streams and the delay you can accept for your real-time GNSS product. Default value for 'Wait for full ecpch' is 1 second.

 <p><h4>B - 5.6 Append Files</h4></p>
 <p>
-When starting BNC, new RINEX files are created by default. Probably existing files are overwritten. However, it may be desirable to append observations to already existing RINEX files following a restart of BNC after an intentional 'Stop', a system crash, or a crash of BNC. Hit 'Append files' to continue with alread existing files and thus save what has been recorded so far. Note that the option 'Append files' also concerns the 'ASCII output file' and the 'Log' file.

 <p><h4>B - 6.6 Edit Mountpoints</h4></p>

-BNC automatically selects one out of several incoporated decoders for a stream based on its 'format' and 'format-details' as given in the sourcetable. It may happen that you need to overrule the automated decoder selection because of sourcetable setup deficiencies. Therefore BNC allows to edit (double-click) the decoder string for each stream shown under 'Mountpoints'. Accepted decoder strings allowed to be introduced are 'RTCM_2.x', 'RTCM_3', and 'RTIGS'.
