2D Current Position Tracking Options

When surveying or implementing there are 4 options that control how vehicle location is tracked on the screen in 2D. The options for 2D tracking are ‘Scroll’, ‘Center’, ‘Dir. up’, and ‘Manual’. 

Scroll 
This option will show the GPS position indicator moving freely on the screen and will move the screen as the indicator approaches the edge to ensure that the indicator is always present on the screen.

Dir. Up

When the ‘Direction Up’ option is active the map will rotate to make sure that the direction of travel is always to the top of the screen.

Center

The Center option has 2 parts, first it locks the indicator to the center of the screen so as it moves the map moves to make sure it stays in the center. The second part is that the map is locked to always have north at the top of the screen.

Manual

This option makes it so that the system does not lock the direction of the map or fixate on the location of the indicator so that even while surveying or implementing you can inspect other sections of the map. Caution: in this mode the vehicle icon can move off the edge of the map.
