D Logs Summary

PRTKA/B Computed Position RTK
This log contains the best available position computed by the receiver, along with three status flags. In addition, it
reports other status indicators, including differential age, which is useful in predicting anomalous behavior brought
about by outages in differential corrections.
This log replaces the P20A log; it is similar, but adds extended status information. With the system operating in an
RTK mode, this log will reflect the latest low-latency solution for up to 30 seconds after reception of the last
reference station observations. After this 30 second period, the position reverts to the best solution available; the
degradation in accuracy is reflected in the standard deviation fields, and is summarized in Table 1-2, Page 18. If
the system is not operating in an RTK mode, pseudorange differential solutions continue for 60 seconds after loss
of the data link, though a different value can be set using the DGPSTIMEOUT command.
