Status Bar and Units Used
• Degrees (Deg.)
• Degrees, minutes (Deg. Min.)
• Degrees, minutes, seconds (Deg. Min. Sec.)
The format of latitude and longitude depends on the chosen
angle unit. The corresponding formats are described in the
table below.
Where:
• N for North, S for South; E for East, W for West
• “D..” for degree digits, “M..” for minute digits, “S..” for
second digits
When typing in a latitude or longitude, leading and trailing
zeroes can be omitted. Degree (°), minute (’) and second (”)
symbols can be omitted as well.
For example, typing 5 6.45 N is a valid entry for 5°
06.450000’ N.
If you use the “Deg.” angle unit, you can use signs for
directions:
• “-” sign for South (S) or West (W)
• No sign or “+” sign for North (N) or East (E)
Time Units
Time is always expressed in 24-hour format. You can choose
between the following two options:
• UTC: UTC time provided by the receiver.
• Local: Local time derived from the UTC time provided by
the receiver, taking into account the time zone read from
the computer’s regional settings.
