The columns available depend on the receiver being used. Consult your receiver’s documentation for more
information.

Position

The Position card displays your current position as well as your course and speed information if you are moving. The
Position card will display one of three coordinates: WGS84 latitude, longitude, height; Local latitude, longitude,
height; or Grid north, east, elevation.

Solution: See the

Receiver

card.

Latitude/Longitude/Height: or North/ East/ Elevation: displays the location of the receiver.

Heading: Displays your course over ground if you are moving. If your coordinate display is geodetic, this heading is
with respect to geodetic north. If your coordinate display is grid, then this heading is with respect to grid north.

Speed: Displays your horizontal speed over ground if you are moving.

WGS84: Set the position display to show WGS84 latitude, longitude, and height. This option is always available.

Local LLh: Set the position display to show Local latitude, longitude, and height. This option is only available when
you have a coordinate system selected and solved.

Note: Local LLh numbers make sense when in mapping plane mode. When using Ground – Default Ground
Calibration mode, you should not use Local LLh display.

Grid: Set the position display to show Grid north, east, and elevation. This option is only available when you have a
coordinate system selected and solved.
