When you select UTM, you can set the Zone yourself
(Man), or let the receiver calculate the zone for you
(Auto, default).
Alarm For High HDOP:
This allows the receiver to create an alarm for HDOP val-
ues which rise above a number that you determine. This
indicates that position accuracy is becoming bad, due to
poor satellite geometry relative to your position and/or
the number of satellites currently under track. You may
want to set the alarm to Yes if position accuracy is critical
to you. Otherwise this alarm is normally set to No.
HDOP Alarm Limit:
Sets the HDOP value which will cause the alarm to sound.
The default value is 4. The valid range is from 1.0 to
9.9. The higher your HDOP value, the more error you
will have in your position fix. Refer to the GPS1 Current
Satellite Status section of this manual for more informa-
tion about the HDOP value.
Alarm If No Update:
This setting causes an alarm when you stop calculating a
position fix for a few seconds when set to Yes (default). A
setting of No disables the alarm when position fix can not
be obtained.
