If you need to customize the Receiver operation, see the section titled
“Customizing the Receiver Operation” on page 1-20 for a list of key
things you may want to perform to customize the operating parameters
of the Receiver.
To Understand the Receiver Status Screen Data
One of the key indicators on the screen is the ACQUISITION
status indicator. It shows “GPS 1 PPS Valid ” as soon as satellite
information is sufficient.
Refer to Chapter 3, “Visual User Interface,” in the 58503B/59551A
Operating and Programming Guide for a tutorial on how to use the
status screen (shown in Figure 1-4). This chapter of the operating and
programming guide also provides a reference section that defines the
different data indicated in the status screen.
