Viewing GPS information
Your radio may be connected to a GPS (global positioning
system) receiver, and programmed (see the note below) so
you can view GPS information such as latitude and longi-
tude, true course, speed, and coordinated universal time.
Your radio may also be programmed to display UTM (univer-
sal transverse mercator) information such as the UTM zone,
and northing and easting coordinates.
Note: GPS information on the radio display is not a standard
feature. Before being programmed, it must be
purchased and enabled on the radio via the Software
Feature Enabler. Contact Tait Electronics Limited for
more information.
While viewing GPS information, the status appears at the top
right of the display. This shows tracking if the GPS receiver
is communicating with a satellite, stored if the GPS receiver
is not communicating with a satellite and the radio is receiv-
ing stored information, lost cnx if the radio has lost serial
communications with the GPS receiver, or data error if the
radio is receiving incorrect information.
