10.3.1 DGPS
Fig. 179
Allows to enable / disable the DGPS (SBAS) differential correction function
(
DGPS correction enabled / DGPS correction disabled).
The SBAS differential correction signal is free of charge and available only in some areas of the world. This
signal allows to obtain a more accurate spraying.
WARNING: this function may be used only in Europe (EGNOS), the United States (WAAS) and
Japan (MSAS).
10.3.2 HDOP alarm
Fig. 180
"HDOP" is the parameter that depends on the position and number of satellites in space that affect the
positional precision of the system (longitude and latitude); the lower the value, the higher is the driving
precision.
The precision alarm is triggered when the value of HDOP measured by the GPS receiver is above the set
limit. We recommend NOT to set values above 4.0.
10.3.3 Tilt compensation
Fig. 181 Fig. 182
Allows to enable/disable the tilt compensation function of the vehicle (with antenna only. See ARAG catalog).
(
Tilt compensation enabled / Tilt compensation disabled).
Delta 80 can set off any measurement errors due to ground inclination.
On steep slopes the error can reach 2 m / 6.5 ft.
