54 WAAS G-III Reference Receiver User Manual Rev 1
Chapter 4 Commands
4.4.9 ECUTOFF
This command sets the elevation cut-off angle for all SV channels assigned to track GNSS satellites. The
receiver does not attempt to acquire a satellite until it rises above the cut-off angle (unless the TRACKMODE
is set to ALL). Tracked satellites that fall below the cut-off angle are no longer tracked unless they were
manually assigned using the ASSIGN command.
If the G-III Reference Receiver has not yet received an almanac, does not have a position entered or does not
have time computed, the satellites below the cut-off angle may be tracked.
