Velocity & Headings

The speed over ground and direction of travel (true, not magnetic). The Velocity and
Heading displays do not provide a reading until the speed over ground is

 ½ meter/second.

Neither needle moves at speeds less than this value to reduce screen clutter. Refer also to
the

Velocity

window on the PVT tab.

The menu option for this window

switches the view to the PVT tab.

Sky Plot

Sky Plot tab

provides an interface to select the constellations to be displayed. Each satellite is displayed
on the Sky Plot by color and PRN: GPS = Green. GLONASS = Grey. SBAS = Orange.
