Save configuration 6.4 Heading Configuration This command is used for dual-antenna receivers (UB482, UM482, and UM442). The heading result is the angle from True North to the baseline of the ANT1 to ANT2 in a clockwise direction. The heading function is enabled by default settings. See Figure 6- 1 Heading Schematic for the schematic. -
