178 / APPENDIX A
APPENDIX B
ADDITIONAL GPS INFORMATION
This section addresses GPS information relating to correction systems and
accuracy.
CORRECTION SYSTEMS
IMPORTANT: Autonomous is only used for non-Topcon receivers.
Topcon receivers can select all other correction
systems.
CORRECTION SOURCE ICON
The correction source icon color indicates the current status of the GPS
source.

ICON COLOR
DESCRIPTION
Grey
No correction source, i.e. autonomous
Red
Correction source requested in GPS setup doesn’t match
the correction source being received
Yellow
Correction source is correct but a signal has not yet
converged to accuracy sufficient for auto steering
(differential correction LED on steering status page is
green but position accuracy LED is red)
Green
Correction source has converged to a level sufficient for
auto steering. Position accuracy LED on steering status
page is green.
