Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS)/European Geostationary
Navigation Overlay System (EGNOS) setup
There are two regional correction signals that are
available at no cost and without a subscription. Your
AFS 162, 252, 262, or 372 receiver can use the
"WAAS/EGNOS" option without an activation code.
• In North America the Federal Aviation Administra-
tion developed the Wide Area Augmentation System
(WAAS) to augment the Global Positioning System
(GPS).
• In Europe, the European Space Agency, the European
Commission, and EUROCONTROL developed the Eu-
ropean Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EG-
NOS) to augment the Global Positioning System (GPS).
Although these signals do improve the accuracy, integrity,
and availability of GPS, they are limited in reliability and
repeatability over time when compared with the subscrip-
tion-based signals described in this manual.
Press the "Correction Type" window to access the pop-up
options window.
Press "WAAS/EGNOS" in the options window.
No additional setup is required for this correction type.
