NFORMATION
Horizontal Dilution of Precision (HDOP) indicates the quality of the horizontal GPS position. Lower HDOP
numbers are optimal, higher numbers are undesirable.
• PDOP
Position Dilution of Precision (PDOP) is a unitless measure indicating when the satellite geometry can
provide the most accurate results. When satellites are spread around the sky, the PDOP value is low and
the computed position is more accurate. When satellites are grouped close together, the PDOP is high and
the positions are less accurate. Lower PDOP numbers are optimal, higher numbers are undesirable.
• Port
The connection between the display and the GPS as established at a message format and baud rate.
• Frequency
The Correction Frequency indicates the GPS satellite frequency used by the receiver.
Note: The Correction Frequency diagnostic does not show for WAAS connections.
• SNR
If your receiver is using Beacon differential corrections, the frequency and signal to noise ratio (SNR) will
be displayed. Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) indicates the strength of the differential correction signal in
relation to the amount of background noise that can interfere with signal reception.
• GPS Speed (mph)
The speed of the vehicle.
• GPS Rate
The update rate from the GPS receiver, shown in Hz.

• UTC Time
UTC is an acronym for Coordinated Universal Time, a high-
precision atomic time standard that defines local time throughout
the world. Different versions of universal time use atomic clocks to
correct for irregularities in the Earth's rotation and orbit. UTC is
used in navigation, astronomy, aviation, Internet broadcasts, and
amateur radio. If you are receiving information from the satellite,
then the UTC Time should automatically update.

The Fast Update Rate indicates whether your receiver is capable
of outputting an update rate faster than 1 Hz per second.
