Averaging a Waypoint
When you average a waypoint, the PN-Series GPS
records a series of GPS readings for the waypoint’s
location and averages them to increase the positional
accuracy of the waypoint. As you average the waypoint,
the GPS status, coordinates, elevation, number of readings
at the location, and estimated accuracy display. Multiple
readings improve the positional accuracy of the waypoint.
The estimated accuracy number decreases as the
accuracy improves.
To average a waypoint
From the waypoint details page, go to MENU > Average
Waypoint. When the device has recorded the number
of readings you want, press ENTER.
Tip Average your location during multiple visits, at different
times of the day to get the best results. Always place the
device in the same location to average the waypoint.
