You may have a situation where clocks and orbits come from an external Real-time Network Engine (1) or a situation where clock and orbit corrections are combined within BNC (2).
(1) BNC identifies a stream as coming from a Real-time Network Engine if its format is specified as 'RTNET' and hence its decoder string in the 'Streams' canvas is 'RTNET'. It encodes and uploads that stream to the specified NTRIP broadcaster
(2) BNC understands that it is expected to encode and upload combined Broadcast Ephemeris corrections if you specify correction streams in the 'Combine Corrections' stream table.
Hit the 'Add Row' button, double click on the 'Host' field to enter the IP or URL of an NTRIP broadcaster and hit Enter. Then double click on the 'Port', 'Mount' and 'Password' fields to enter the NTRIP broadcaster IP port (default is 80), the mountpoint and the stream upload password. An empty 'Host' option field means that you don't want to upload corrections.
Select a target coordinate reference system (e.g. IGS08) for outgoing clock and orbit corrections.
By default orbit and clock corrections refer to Antenna Phase Center (APC). Tick 'CoM' to refer uploaded corrections to Center of Mass instead of APC.
Specify a path for saving the generated Broadcast Corrections plus Broadcast Ephemeris as SP3 orbit files. If the specified directory does not exist, BNC will not create SP3 orbit files. The following is a path example for a Linux system:
/home/user/BNC${GPSWD}.sp3
Note that '${GPSWD}' produces the GPS Week and Day number in the file name.
When saving SP3 file contents and/or referring correctors to the satellite's Center of Mass (CoM), an offset has to be applied because correctors originally refer to the satellite's Antenna Phase Center (APC). Antenna offsets are available from the IGS 'ANTEX file' which can be introduced through specifying its path. If you don't specify an 'ANTEX file' path, the SP3 file contents and the correctors will be referred to the satellites APCs.
Specify a path for saving the generated Broadcast Correction clocks plus Broadcast Ephemeris clocks as Clock RINEX files. If the specified directory does not exist, BNC will not create Clock RINEX files. The following is a path example for a Linux system:

Note that '${GPSWD}' produces the GPS Week and Day number in the file name.
Specify finally an SSR Provider ID number, an SSR Solution ID number and an Issue of Data SSR number.
