HDOP (Horizontal Dilution of Precision) is a measure of the impact of the geometry of the observed satellites on the quality of
the fix. Lower HDOPs mean that the geometric quality is better, which usually implies a better result. The HDOP threshold
setting should be set to 2 initially If the HDOP is above the threshold, the GPS information will not be passed. HDOP values
are generally defined as follows:
1­2 Excellent
2­5 Good
5­10 Moderate
10+ Poor
DGPS (Differential GPS) DGPS provides a ground referenced correction to the GPS signal to improve the accuracy. If DGPS
Only is checked, GPS Information will not be passed unless the signal is recognized as DGPS quality. If DGPS is not checked,
the DGPS quality of the signal checked.
Toggle Filter ­ Toggle filter allows the filter to be turned on or off. If the filter is On, only those signals that meet all filter criteria are
passed. If the filter is Off, GPS information is always passed.
The VideoRay ROV GPS is optional and may not be included in all VideoRay Pro 4 configurations.

Software Installation
Installation of VideoRay CoPilot RI is a complex process. Improper installation can result in an unstable computer. If
you do have an intermediate or better understanding of installing and configuring software, contact VideoRay Technical Support for
assistance.
CoPilot setup currently REQUIRES that the logged in (and thus installing) user be named VideoRay. This is standard on
VideoRay provisioned production machines.
This setup also requires systems using a ROV GPS Mast and DVL to have the device PAMS programmed with the standard ID's.
This may NOT be the case for some devices. In which case they will HAVE to be reprogrammed with vrDeviceConf. Please contact
VideoRay Technical Support for assistance if necessary.
