TRACKING 

 

2 D Fix:  

( default off)

 

Enables a two-dimensional GPS position fix that includes only horizontal coordinates (no 
GPS elevation). It requires a minimum of three visible satellites. 

 

Walking mode: (default off) 

The receiver engine uses different filters in walking mode i.e. does not include velocity 
in position calculations. 

 

Stop Detection: 

(default on)

 

The receiver engine adjusts filters when a stop condition is detected. This feature should 
be disabled when doing ‘wander’ testing. 

 

High Dynamics: 

(default off

The receiver engine uses different filters for high acceleration applications. 

Must be enabled when the fix rate is >5Hz. 

 

Acquisition Mask Angle (degrees): 

The elevation angle of a GNSS satellite below which data will be ignored when acquiring 
a fix.  A lower mask angle may lead to faster acquisition. 

 

Positioning Mask Angle: 

The elevation angle of a GNSS satellite below which data will be ignored once a fix has 
been acquired.  Once a fix has been acquired the mask angle can be increased so that 
only high satellites are tracked.  By setting this parameter to a value less than the 
acquisition mask angle the satellite will always be used in a fix once it is acquired. 

Having larger values helps reduce multipath errors.
