5.7. GPS screen
This screen has the same layout and behavior as the “MEASUREMENT OPTIONS”
screen. It allows to modify the GPS parameters. Those parameters are:
• Format: allows to select 3 standard format for the latitude and longitude.
You can choose between:
• Degrees minutes seconds: example: 40° 26′ 46″ N 79° 58′ 56″ W.
• Degrees decimal minutes: example: 40° 26.7671′ N 79° 58.9331′ W.
• Decimal degrees: example: +40.446 -79.982°.
• Turn on at start up: defines the GPS state when the unit starts up.
• Turn on for current session: defines the GPS state only for this session.
That means that next time you switch on the unit the GPS will be in the
state defined by “Turn on at start up” parameter.
- System date and time (settings for better GPS fix and precision)
• Auto sync with satellite time: updates the SMP3 time with the satellite
time when GPS is enabled.
• User time zone (UTC ± X): allows users to enter their UTC time
zone by setting the UTC time offset, X (00:00) represents the time
offset from UTC.
