Navigation 37
Position display
The current information on the position of the vehicle is
shown here.
GPS status (number of satellite receptions, positioning mode)
including the direction and distance to destination (with active route
guidance).
Direction of travel
Altitude (GPS altitude). If too few satellites are received to calculate
the altitude, the display is green.
GPS position (longitude)
GPS position (latitude)
The direction of travel is shown in degrees and also in the form of a
compass.
The GPS status shows the number of satellites as dots and also shows
the positioning mode (NO FIX, 2D FIX, 3D FIX).
• NO FIX – The GPS reception is not sufficient to fix the position of the
vehicle.
• If the position definition for NO FIX is only possible using the wheel
sensors (underground garage etc), the GPS coordinates will be displayed
in green. The GPS coordinates will no longer be shown following a long
distance with NO FIX in the display or if it is not possible to determine the
position.
• 2D FIX – The horizontal position of the vehicle can be determined, but
not the altitude (altitude display is green).
• 3D FIX – Position and altitude can be determined.
The altitude given is accurate to ±15 m at altitudes between 0 m and
+5000m. The system will be less accurate if the GPS reception is bad or
weather conditions are poor.
The direction to the destination is shown in the form of a marking outside
the compass. If the destination is not in the area displayed by the compass
(i.e. to the side or behind the vehicle), the marking is shown as an arrow
to the side in question.
