EPE CIRCLE
Estimated Position Error (EPE) indicates the accuracy of the position fix.
EPE uses
Dilution of Precision (DOP) and other factors to calculate a horizontal position error.
DOP measures satellite geometry quality (i.e., number of satellites received and where
they are relative to each other).
Setting up and customizing the EPE circle for the map page:
1)
From the Map Page press the
MENU
Key.
2)
Turn or move the
FMS
Joystick to highlight ‘Set Up Map’ and press the
