POSITION FIX ALGORITHM TYPE (@@Ar)
The VP receiver uses a least-squares position computation algorithm,
and operates in one of two Position Fix modes as set by the user: Best-4
or N-in-View.
Best-4: When enabled, the GPS receiver uses the best four satellites
out of N satellites that the GPS receiver can track for the computation of
position, where N is the number of satellites that the receiver is currently
tracking. The GPS receiver uses the best four satellites as defined by the
xDOP selection. The GPS receiver can have other satellites on the
remaining channels that the receiver will use in the case that one or
more of the primary selected satellites is lost due to signal blockage.
N-in-View: When enabled, the GPS receiver will use all satellites that it
is tracking for the position fix. The assignment of satellites to channels is
optimized for the N-in-View condition.
Default value: N-in-View
