GNSS Status

Open the

GNSS Toolbox and tap on GNSS Status.

The default

Position tab shows the latitude, longitude and

altitude of the current position, as computed by the
receiver, as well the number of satellites used and the
current PDOP value.

If SBAS is used, the screen also shows the position status
(SDGPS) and the age of corrections.

In RTK mode, the screen additionally shows the HRMS
and VRMS, the baseline length, the base ID and, if the
receiver has not fixed the position yet, the estimated time
before a new fixed position is available (

Time to FIXED

parameter).

The unit used to express the current altitude, HRMS,
VRMS and baseline length (meters or feet) depends on the
region (language and country) you selected in

Settings,

System, Regional Settings.

The

Satellites tab displays a polar diagram showing the

locations in the sky of the tracked satellites. Different
colors are used to display the numbers of the visible
satellites:

– Yellow characters: GPS satellites used

– Green characters: GLONASS satellites used

all GPS and GLONASS satellites used
