When the GPS II is receiving DGPS corrections from the GBR-21, the 'beacon
receiver' section of the I/O setup page will display the beacon frequency and signal
strength, as well as the distance from the transmitter to the beacon receiver. At the
bottom of the beacon receiver field, a status message will keep you informed of
DGPS activity:
• A 'tuning' message will be displayed while a beacon signal is being tuned.
• Once the beacon signal has been tuned, a 'receiving' message will be displayed.
• If a beacon signal is tuned and no corrections are being received, a 'no data'
message will be displayed.
• If a beacon signal cannot be tuned, a 'no status' message will be displayed.
The GPS II will also display one of three alert messages concerning DGPS opera-
tion through the message page:
No DGPS Position— not enough data is available to compute a DGPS posi-
tion.
No RTCM Input— the beacon receiver is not properly connected or the baud
rates do not match.
RTCM Input Failed— DGPS data was being received but has been lost.
