PVT
 Provides a quick view of the current position.

DATUM: Displays the selected reference surface model to define 3D coordinates. It also
displays the current Geoid Model loaded in the receiver, GGM02 or GEOID99, or No Geoid
Model. Refer to
Chapter 4 Geoidal Databases .
 Nav Rate: Displays the currently configured navigation rate for position, velocity, and time
messages.
 Meas Rate: Displays the currently configured rate for raw measurement messages
(MEAS1B).

If No Geoid Model is displayed, the Height and Altitude are the same. If the GGM02
database is loaded, the Height and Altitude typically differ.

Height is relative to ellipsoid, scaled to 1/1000 th of a meter, and the geoid-ellipsoid
separation is scaled to 1/1024
th
of a meter. The geoid-ellipsoid separation is
calculated as the ellipsoidal height minus the geiodal height and is a positive
number when the geoid is above the ellipsoid.
