“Correction signal” parameter
Type of correction signal for the GPS receiver.
- ▪
- EGNOS/WAAS
- ▪
- EGNOS/WAAS + GLIDE
- ▪
- GLIDE
- ▪
- RTK radio(RTK licence required)
- ▪
- RTK GSM(RTK licence required)
- ▪
- TerraStar (RTK or L band licence required)
Information for GLIDE
If you have selected a correction signal with GLIDE, please note:
- ▪
- Switch the GPS receiver off when driving on roads.
- ▪
- After starting the systems each time, it takes ca. 5 minutes until the system is ready for operation. Wait on the field to be worked during this time, before you start working.
- ▪
- Ensure that the GPS receiver does not lose the GPS signal during work. (e.g. due to shadowing by buildings or trees). If the signal gets lost, it can cause the GLIDE to restart. This can lead to track offset.
Information for TerraStar
If you have selected “TerraStar” as a correction signal, please note:
- ▪
- There are two different TerraStar correction signals: TerraStar-C and TerraStar-L. These differ mainly in their accuracies.
- ▪
- The accuracies are available ca. 5 to 10 minutes after switching on the GPS receiver under the open sky.
- ▪
- If the GPS signal fails due to shadowing by buildings or trees, the full accuracy is available again at the latest after ca. 5 minutes. For this reason, you should avoid driving along rows of trees or buildings.
- ▪
- During the convergence, the GPS receiver and the vehicle should not be moved and the location should not be changed.
