 SATView:
Under the SATView tab, the spatial orientation of the satellite constellation is shown. You can also see
if the satellite is rising or falling in the sky, by the associated arrow. Click on any satellite number to see individual
satellite details, including the precise signal/noise ratio. You can also toggle satellites on and off if supported by the
GPS. If a satellite is turned off, it displays with a line through it within the Signal/Noise Ratio graphs.
 SATInfo:
This tab shows information on Satellites.
 PRN is the satellite reference numbers. * indicates satallite in use for position calculation.
 TYPE: GPS vs Glonass and SBS
 AZI: is the satellite azimuth.
 ELV: is the satellite elevation above the horizon, including rising (>) and falling (<) direction. The "*" designation
indicates that the satellite is used in the calculation of position.
 Ref:
The REF tab to the right of SAT Info appears with most GPS configurations (not with GPS Simulation). The
REF tab will show the base station information stored to the reference file, which is created during base
configuration. The Magellan/Ashtech GPS, for example, will show the distance from rover to base. The base
coordinates can also be stored by pressing the Store button.
You simply enter a point number and description, and the precise base coordinates are stored in north, east and
elevation, according to the localization file settings. Then the base coordinate point can be used for total station
work as a setup or backsight. If a base position of 0,0,0 is detected, representing in invalid base setup, the
Store
button will be grayed out.
