Core Module information, includ- ing: continuous LAT/LONG/
SPEED; display GPS Satellite Ad- visory Software; use in digital track plotting. Suitable PCs are those with 8088 processors and 8087 co- processors. (Color monitor required for track plotting and Advisory
Software).
Leading up to the time when enough GPS satellites are in opera- tion to give worldwide two-dimen- sional coverage, there will be peri- ods when continuous GPS Fixes are not available. Sperry addresses this situation in two ways: (1) With the
GPS Core Module connected to the
Satnavs above, the display automat- ically reverts to Transit mode when
GPS fixes are not available; (2)
Sperry provides free, the GPS Satel- lite Advisory Software diskette, which predicts periods of coverage and additional satellite parameters at any given position or date. This graphic software allows anyone with a Sperry PC compatible personal computer to have, at his fingertips, the necessary information for navi- gation planning.
The publication includes a lift- out technical data sheet that gives detailed performance information and physical facts.
