DGPS Real-Time Configuration

The MobileMapper CE GPS receiver integrates WAAS/EG-

NOS. WAAS is the functionality that the receiver uses by de-

fault. You can also use corrections from an external

correction source, such as MobileMapper Beacon, a belt-

mounted, Bluetooth-enabled beacon receiver connected to

serial port COM1 or via a Bluetooth port (see figure oppo-

site).

For more information on using MobileMapper CE with Mo-

bileMapper Beacon, see page 30.

Beacon Receiver Configuration

You can use Programs>GPS Utili-

ties>DGPS Configuration

to set port and

baud rate for the external beacon

source (see opposite right), and to set

automatic and manual tune modes for

operational versatility.

The

Status tab (see opposite left) gives

the name (if available), station ID, fre-

quency and MSK rate of the beacon

station that is currently being used. It also displays the signal

strength, the signal-to-noise ratio and the lock status (Yes or

No).

The

Tune tab (see opposite left) gives you the option of auto-

matically tuning, manually tuning by frequency and MSK

rate or by beacon name. Automatic tuning is set by default.

For the DGPS settings to take effect, tap

OK on the DGPS

Configuration window.

Resetting GPS

Tap Reset GPS in GPS Utilities to clear the GPS receiver’s

memory.
