  • The GPS Status page allows to display different information on the GNSS receiver connected:

    • Quality of the signal.

    • Number and position of satellites.

    • Current coordinate.

    • Information about the base and the .

    • Position in a map.


Quality page

  • Quality page shows information on the current quality of the GNSS receiver.

    • Position: displays the RTK quality of position.

      • RTK Extra-Safe / RTK SureFix: available for some GNSS receiver models. The receiver gets corrections from a source and has fixed the ambiguities in RTK Extra-Safe / RTK SureFix.

      • RTK Fixed: the receiver gets corrections from a source and has fixed the ambiguities with maximum precision.

      • Quick-Fix: available for some GNSS receiver models. The receiver has fixed the ambiguities but has not reached the maximum precision level yet.

      • RTK Float: the receiver gets corrections from a source but it has not yet fixed ambiguities.

      • DGPS: the receiver gets differential corrections in DGPS mode.

      • Autonomous: the receiver gets positions without receiving corrections from any source in minimum precision.

      • PPP-Fixed: the receiver is receiving corrections using PPP service and ambiguity is fixed.

      • PPP-Float: the receiver is receiving corrections using PPP service and ambiguity is still not fixed.

    • Precision 2D: precision of the current position regarding coordinates.

    • Precision Elev: precision of the current position regarding elevation.

    • RTK Extra-Safe / RTK SureFix: available for Zenith 35/Zenith 60/ Zenith 60 Pro. Using this option in environments with signal partially blocked allows to have a solution slower getting the fix status but likely less to be erroneous.

    • Satellites: number of satellites of the different constellations.

    • HDOP: Horizontal Dilution of Precision.

    • VDOP: Vertical Dilution of Precision.

    • PDOP: General Dilution of Precision related to the satellites position.

    • Age corrections: delay in receiving corrections in seconds. A high value indicates missing reception of corrections.

    • GSM Signal: level of GSM signal.

    • NTRIP Server: name of the used NTRIP server.

    • Mountpoint: name of the mountpoint with available access. Click on the mountpoint to change mountpoint.


Position page

  • The Position page shows the current GNSS receiver position with its geodetic coordinate and local coordinate based on the defined GNSS localization method.

    • image-20250620-093949.png : number of the satellite, constellation and satellite position and elevation.

    • image-20250620-094123.png : signal quality.


Base page

  • Displays information related to the reference base.

    image-20250620-094159.png
    • Base: name of the base.

    • Lat., Lon., Elevation: coordinates of the base.

    • Distance: distance between base and current position.

    • Antenna: antenna model of the base.


Map page

  • Displays the current position in a map.
