D-GPS Set Up
The D-GPS SET UP function is only available when a Differential GPS
receiver is connected and the unit is set as a GPS Source repeater (see
GPS Source on page 4-8). It provides the ability to set up an external
Differential GPS, either automatically (default) or by manually
retuning it to a different differential beacon.
Note: If the display unit is receiving RTCM data via the NMEA input
port, repeating a differential fix from another unit, the D-GPS SET UP soft
key is grayed out. If receiving RTCM data, set up must be performed
manually on the external DGPS receiver.
To set up a D-GPS:
Press the D-GPS SET UP soft key.
The D-GPS SET UP screen is displayed as shown in Figure 4-3.
