ickStart State: The QuickStart process goes through these modes:

Idle: QuickStart is not initiated or in progress. Once QuickStart is initiated, Idle is

temporarily displayed if:

• Power is cycled on the unit.
• The

command,

Reset QuickStart, is applied. This causes a restart of the entire RTG

navigation mode with no a-priori position information, i.e. full pull-in duration.

Initiated: QuickStart is initiated, but is not operating. QuickStart operation does not begin

until the start of RTG navigation. This requires at least five satellites each with full dual
frequency tracking and at least 10 seconds of code-carrier smoothing. If, for example, a
QuickStart initiation request is given shortly after power-on, it may be a few minutes
before these conditions are met. During this period, the reported QuickStart mode is
Initiated.

In Progress: QuickStart is operating. QuickStart is In Progress until the operation

completes or fails, or until a

kstart command is received.

leted: A QuickStart operation completed successfully.

Click the OK button to initiate QuickStart. When the QuickStart operation completes
successfully, the StarFire™ RTG navigation solution is initialized to the accuratel
position from the prior day, and therefore eliminates the lengthy convergence time.

Comp
Failed Proximity Limit: While a QuickStart operation is in progress, a check is perfor

at each 1Hz navigation epoch, which compares the 3D radial distance between the R
code solution and the ‘known’ position input with the QuickStart initiation request. If th
distance exceeds 25 meters on the first QuickStart epoch, or 15 meters on any of the
subsequent epochs in the In Progress period, the QuickStart is terminated, RTG
navigation is reset (full pull-in required), and the QuickStart mode is reported as Faile
Proximity Limit
.

The RTG code solution is the weighted
smoothed code (could be single or dual frequency depending on prefilter status) and
RTG clock and orbit corrections. It is independent from the full RTG solution, which u
the phase biases, estimated by the RT
initialized by a QuickStart operation.
