the raw GPS fixes. A setting between 000 to 999 is available. The higher

 

setting the more smoothed the raw data, however too high a setting

 

slows response time to change in latitude and longitude. This is

 

especially noticeable at high ship’s speeds. Increase the setting if the

 

GPS fix changes.

 

 

 

During position fixing, ship’s velocity (speed and course) is directly

 

measured by receiving GPS satellite signals. The raw velocity data may

 

change randomly depending on receiving conditions and other factors.

SOG/COG

You can reduce this random variation by increasing the smoothing. Like

Smoothing

with latitude and longitude smoothing, the higher the speed and course

 

smoothing the more smoothed the raw data. If the setting is too high,

 

however, the response to speed and course change slows. For no

 

smoothing, enter all zeroes.

 

 

 

Every GPS satellite is broadcasting abnormal satellite number(s) in its

 

Almanac, which contains general orbital data about all GPS satellites,

 

including those which are malfunctioning. Using this information, the

GPS receiver automatically eliminates any malfunctioning satellite from

contain this information. If you hear about a malfunctioning satellite from

 

another source, you can disable it manually. Enter satellite number

 

(max. 3 satellites) in two digits.
