​
Description

This function determines the new course and the new gradient at which the GNSS receiver will continue its motion. These two values are only used in kCourse simulation mode (see GNSSStartSimulation). The following table describes the relationship between course and compass direction:
  • Course: 0°
    Direction: North
  • Course: 90°
    Direction: East
  • Course: 180°
    Direction: South
  • Course: 270°
    Direction: West
If this function is called, previously set waypoints (e.g. by function GNSSAddWpMeander or GNSSAddWpRel) are ignored.

​
Parameters

  • course: the course in degrees
  • gradient: the inclination in degrees
