Vector - Heading Display

This page shows the RTK vector heading information. The RTK vector heading information is available for dual-antenna or pairs of receivers with Moving Base capability. If the receiver is unable to receive this data, a large red X mark appears across the compass in the web interface.

Select Receiver Status / Vector - Heading Display.

 

Adjusted Slope – This graphical display shows the current slope angle between the two antennas after adjustments defined in the Vector Configuration page have been applied.

Adjusted Heading – This graphical display shows the current Heading between the two antennas after adjustments defined in the Vector Configuration page have been applied. On a dual-antenna receiver this will be derived from the vector between the position (POS) and the vector (VECT) antennas whereas for a pair of single antenna receivers this will be derived from the vector between the Moving Base and the Rover antennas.

Base Position – The number of satellites used by the moving base to generate corrections.

Position or Position Antenna – The number of satellites used and the solution type of the position solution at the position (POS) or primary antenna.

Vector – Displays in Cartesian format the RTK vector (unadjusted) currently being used to derive the Heading. This will be from the Vector (VECT) antenna to the Position (POS) antenna on a dual-antenna receivers.

  • North – Vector in the local geodetic north direction, given in meters.

  • East – Vector in the local geodetic east direction, given in meters.

  • Up – Vector in the local geodetic up direction, given in meters to the antenna phase center (APC).

  • Range – The length of the vector from the APC of the Base antenna to the APC of the Rover antenna, given in meters.
