tilt CorreCtion
When a Steering Control Module (SCM) or Tilt Gyro Module (TGM)
is present, Tilt Correction options will be available. The Tilt function
corrects the GPS signal to compensate for errors in the GPS position
while operating on sloped terrain.
NOTE: A mistake in the calibration process that results in a 1 degree
error in the Tilt reading from the SCM/TGM will result in a
2.0 in. / 5.1 cm error in guidance [on a machine that has
9.5 ft. / 2.9 m antenna height]. This potential error necessitates
that all reasonable care is taken to ensure that the system is
installed and calibrated correctly in order to produce accurate
Tilt measurement and machine guidance.
