XXXXXXXXm: Altitude data indicating the distance
from the center of the earth is displayed in this
format.
S+XXXXXXXm Y+D: Altitude data indicating the

The meaning of the characters and strings shown
is as follows.
• “S” (1st character): Indicates data from a Sensor.
“R” is shown for position data from the
recording device (Recorder), and “T” is shown
for Target position data.
• “+” (2nd character): Indicates higher than sea
level. “–” indicates lower than sea level.
• “XXXXXXXm” : Altitude data (unit meters).
• “Y”: The number of satellites used to calculate
position data (hexadecimal).
• “D”: DOP (dilution of precision) value.
• “+” (between Y and D): Displayed when a
supportive apparatus was used. A space (blank)
is displayed when no supportive apparatus was
used.
