Configuring the GPS receiver
 
The GPS receiver can be configured differently for various terminals. You can find out how to do this in the operating instructions for the terminal.
 
 
The following tables show the values which you can select in the parameter “correction signal” during configuration:

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.
