Displaying the Calculated Skew Angle

Use the flowchart in Figure 3-2 to display the average skew angle for

your selected satellites. If just one satellite is configured for tracking, that satellite’s skew angle is displayed.

IMPORTANT!

An accurate skew angle reading requires current latitude and longitude data. If necessary, be sure to update the latitude and

longitude data before proceeding (see “Updating Latitude and

Longitude Data” on page 31 for more information).
