GEODE CONNECT is a configuration and communication utility for the GEODE GNSS RECEIVER. It provides the ability to establish communications to the Geode Real-Time Sub-meter GPS/GNSS Receiver, change receiver settings, and displays position, altitude, estimated horizontal error, differential status fix info, speed, heading, satellites in fix and PDOP.
