9.6GPS
The GPS subgroup allows the user to specify tracking and logging parameters, define the antenna to be used and enter initial coordinates for first time tracking to a new region.
9.6.1Tracking
The tracking screen is comprised of three controls.
•Max Accuracy / Max Track / Hyper Track radio button: Is a selection that is mostly dependant upon the GPS environment. Max Track and Hyper Track are Leica Geosystems innovations that allows for signals to be tracked at a lower strength threshold, which provides reception in dense foliage.
Tip: Max/Hyper Track does not allow for phase collection. High precision points should be collected in Max Accuracy.
•Mask Angle: Is the angle above the horizon which determines the cutoff for tracking satellites.
Remember: Because a greater distance through the atmosphere must be penetrated for low elevation satellites, a default of 10 degrees is preset and recommended as a minimum!
