CYLINDER GP-STICK 2126329 - Caterpillar

Pan - With Auto Pan on, when the machine nearly reaches the edge of the screen, the map is moved and redrawn so the machine is near the opposite edge of the screen and heading toward the center.Base Station - A base station that includes a GPS receiver and data radio must be set up with the AccuGrade System. This station transmits CMR messages to the machine in order to improve position accuracy.Benchmark - Benchmark is the defined zero point for depth and reach valuesCompact Measurement Record (CMR) - A satellite measurement message that is broadcast by the base receiver. The RTK GPS receivers use CMR in order to calculate an accurate vector from the base to the rover.Cross Slope - Cross Slope is the average grade or slope of a parcel or area expressed as a percentage of vertical difference in elevation to the horizontal distance. A level surface has a cross slope of zero.Cut/Fill - The vertical distance from the bucket tip to the Target Depth. This value is calculated and changes dynamically. Arrow indicates direction to grade. No sign is displayed. Data Card - The plug-in, removable storage card which holds all of the design and system files.Dialog - A screen where you enter text or numbers, or select options.Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) - A technique that uses GPS satellite technology and radio telemetry in order to calculate a position to better than 1 m accuracy.Digital Terrain Model (DTM) - An electronic representation of the design in three dimensions. TINs and grids are two types of DTMs.Firmware - Software that is stored in read-only memory (ROM) or programmable ROM (PROM). Firmware runs the AccuGrade System.Global Positioning System (GPS) - A technique that uses satellite technology in order to calculate an accurate three-dimensional position.Gridded DTM - A Gridded DTM is a rectangular grid of points representing a three-dimensional surface. Also see DTM.Heading - The direction in which the machine is moving.Light Emitting Diode (LED) - A small, bright, and usually colored light that is used in electronic componentry.Load - 1. To put data onto a data card so that the data card can be used. 2. To copy data into the Display from the data card.Northing, Easting, Elevation (NEE) - Projected local coordinates that are used by a design.Orientation - The direction the bucket is facing.Pan - To pan is to move around the screen at the same scale. Pan moves the plan sideways or up and down on the screen.Position Dilution of Precision (PDOP) - A measure of quality of the GPS position. PDOP values below seven are satisfactory. The ideal PDOP value is one. Values from two to four are good.Slope - The forward and aft grade (or mainfall) of the machine.Reach - Reach is the radial distance (in/out) of the bucket tip with respect to Bench (zero). This value is calculated and changes dynamically. The GCS900 displays an arrow next to the reach text item indicating which way the bucket has moved
