The Built-in GPS Receiver
Terraloc Pro 2 has a built-in GPS receiver (Figure 4). In order to function well the built-
in antenna in the handle of the instrument must be able to receive signals from a
sufficient number of satellites. This will normally not function indoors and in outdoor
areas with limited viewing angle towards the sky the function can be limited, for
example in a forest. Positioning data is automatically saved in the header of the current
record. The GPS receiver status is shown on the display (see chapter 4.4.7 Application
Status Bar).
