OmniSTAR VBS is a "sub-meter" level of service.
•
HP/XP
The OmniSTAR XP service is more accurate than VBS, but slightly less accurate than HP. The OmniSTAR HP (High
Performance) service is the most accurate of the three options.
•
Fast Restart
Checking this box before the vehicle is shut down allows the receiver to utilize shutdown time to acquire the
appropriate satellites in order to ensure a quick and efficient startup. This reduces the time taken for satellite
convergence after startup, and thus increases accuracy in the field.
÷
NOTE! To get the most benefit from Fast Restart, you should shut down the vehicle in a place where the receiver has
a clear view of the sky. Do not move the vehicle before powering up again.
•
GGA (GLONASS)
Checking this box allows the additional GLONASS satellites to be displayed in the GGA message.
•
AutoTune Frequency check box
Receiver will automatically select the strongest frequency.

In the Frequency drop-down list box, select the geographic region where you are located. If you wish to enter a
Custom Frequency, select Custom. Then enter the frequency number in the text box below.
