Home screen
The Home screen is the main screen displayed on the receiver. If the receiver is
displaying another screen and is left idle for 60 seconds, you are returned to the Home
screen. It shows the following information:
• Number of satellites being tracked:
– When the receiver is in Base mode, the Home screen displays the number
of satellites in view, that is, all satellites above the elevation mask. This is
the number of satellites that the base station is sending data for.
– When the receiver is in Rover, Heading, or Moving Base mode, the Home
screen displays the number of satellites used to calculate the position.
– If the receiver is set to use SBAS or OmniSTAR corrections, the Home
screen displays the number of satellites that corrections have been received
for.
– If the receiver is computing an autonomous solution, the Home screen
displays all satellites in view, that is, all satellites above the elevation mask.
