WAAS
The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) capability
produces a more accurate position fix. When enabled
(GPS set to Normal and WAAS set to Enabled through
the System Setup Page; also the interface must be set
to something other than RTCM mode), this feature
searches for WAAS satellites near your location and
then receives data for correcting differentials in the
GPS satellite signals. WAAS satellite numbers begin at
number 33 or above and are displayed on the Satellite
Page. When differential correction data has been received
for GPS satellites (numbers 32 or below), a D displays
in the signal bar. It is helpful to orient the unit antenna
toward the WAAS satellite shown in the skyview. To
learn more about the WAAS System, refer to the Federal
Aviation Administration Web
site (http://gps.faa.gov/).
Because the Rino 110 relies on
satellite signals to provide you
with navigational guidance,
the unit’s view of the sky
determines how fast you achieve navigational status. GPS
signals do not travel through heavy objects or people: For
best results, keep the unit in clear view of the sky.
Satellite Strength
At least three satellite signals are needed to determine
your location; otherwise the unit displays a “Poor
Satellite Reception” message with four options:
Use with GPS Off—select this option if you want
GPS off.
New Location—select this option if you have moved
more than 600 miles (from where you last used the unit).
Restart Search
—select this option if today is not date
provided.
Continue Acquiring
—select this option if no other
option applies. The unit attempts to gather GPS signals.
