When the OmniSTAR® HP/XP/G2 signal convergence
is complete, another message displays: "Switching to
HP/XP/G2."
This message only displays when the signal switch oc-
curs.
Press the "OK" button to acknowledge and clear the mes-
sage.
NOTE: The actual change to OmniSTAR® HP/XP/G2
correction occurs when the message displays.
The system automatically adjusts for any error between
the two methods when the switch occurs.
If the OmniSTAR® HP/XP/G2 signal is lost but the Om-
niSTAR® VBS signal is still available, another message
displays: "Switching to VBS."
This warning only displays when the signal switch occurs.
Press the "OK" button to acknowledge and clear the mes-
sage.
The system automatically adjusts for any error between
the two methods when the switch occurs.
NOTE: At any time you can view which method of correc-
tion is in use by checking the "GPS Setup" screen (Home
> Toolbox > GPS).
"Converge Distance"
Use the "Converge Distance" window with OmniSTAR®
HP/XP/G2 to reduce the convergence time associated
with this technology. The setting in this window affects the
signal accuracy required for initial convergence: the sys-
tem continues to converge to the full signal accuracy of
OmniSTAR® HP/XP/G2 technology, but the system be-
comes available for use earlier.
Converge distance is the distance that OmniSTAR®
HP/XP/G2 uses to establish the location of a point while
converging.
The system default is 0.102 m (4.0 in).
Increasing the distance allows the system to be ready for
use earlier, but with less accuracy.
If the planned work does not require the highest level of
accuracy, increase the converge distance so that the sys-
tem will be available for use earlier. If the planned work
does require great accuracy, set the "Converge Distance"
window to the default value of 0.102 m (4 in). In both
cases, the system will ultimately converge to the full ac-
curacy of OmniSTAR® HP/XP/G2 technology.
NOTE: Do not confuse the converge distance with the
accuracy of the technology.
Press the "Converge Distance" window to access the nu-
meric keypad.
