StarFire QuickStart
QuickStart is a feature that eliminates the convergence period for StarFire-enabled receivers.
This function allows the StarFire navigation solution to be initialized to an accurately known
ITRF-2008 position, eliminating lengthy convergence times. Single frequency StarFire mode is
not supported.
The QuickStart (user input) position must have a better-than-decimeter accuracy to achieve
maximum results. Any error in the user input position will bias the StarFire position error
accordingly, until convergence can correct the bias. In this case, convergence may take longer
than the typical startup convergence period.
The receiver must be navigating in StarFire mode before QuickStart can be initiated (see
Figure 117). This typically occurs in about three minutes after startup.

The convergence period is the time necessary for the received StarFire signal
corrections to be applied and the position filtered to optimal performance. The
convergence period is typically 30 to 45 minutes to achieve <decimeter accuracy.
This period may be overcome using the QuickStart method.
