This driver supports all compatible receivers such as the 6-channel MX4200, MX4200D, and the 12-channel MX9212, MX9012R, MX9112.</p> 269c2daa00SOllivier Robert <p><a href="http://www.leica-gps.com/"><img src="../pic/9400n.jpg" alt="Leica MX9400N Navigator" height="143" width="180" align="left"></a> <a href="http://www.leica-gps.com/">Leica Geosystems</a> acquired the Magnavox commercial GPS technology business in February of 1994.

The receiver is initially placed in a "Static, 3D Nav" mode, where latitude, longitude, elevation and time are calculated for a fixed station. An average position is calculated from this data. After 24 hours, the receiver is placed into a "Known Position" mode, initialized with the calculated position, and then solves only for time.</p> 329c2daa00SOllivier Robert <p>In mobile mode, the driver assumes the GPS antenna is mounted on a moving platform such as a car, ship, or aircraft. The receiver is placed in "Dynamic, 3D Nav" mode and solves for position, altitude and time while moving. No position averaging is performed.</p> 339c2daa00SOllivier Robert <h4>Monitor Data</h4> 34*2b15cb3dSCy Schubert <p>The driver writes each timecode as received to the <tt>clockstats</tt> file.
