Ag252_100B_UserGuide_ENG.book Page 11 Thursday, July 28, 2005 4:06 PM Overview 2 The parts per million (ppm) error is dependent on the distance (baseline length) between the base and rover receiver. For example, if the distance is 10 km, a 2 ppm error equals 20 mm. For more information about RTK positioning, go to the Trimble website at www.trimble.com/gps/ 25.2 Differential GPS positioning (DGPS) For differential positioning, the AgGPS 252 receiver uses corrections from WAAS/EGNOS sa

Convergence to where the error is estimated to be below 30 cm (approximate 12 inches) typically takes around 20 minutes. Factors that influence the time to convergence include the environment, the geographical location, and the distance to the closest OmniSTAR corrections base station. OmniSTAR is continually improving the service. For more i
