The TARGET screen is selectable from the ADD/REMOVE screen. It contains a target gauge with 3 supporting numerical elements. The units used depend on the selected Settings.
The Target Graph gauge element is located at the bottom of the screen and provides a visual representation of a selected parameter (speed by default).
You can configure the gauge by tapping and holding or double-tapping on it. This will open up the TARGET GRAPH SETTINGS menu.
There are 2 Target Graph Settings screens available: DATA/RANGE and COLOURS/ALERT. You can toggle between these screens by tapping the Forward or Back arrows at the bottom right of the screen or by swiping left or right. You can change the settings by tapping the corresponding button next to an option.
To return to the data screen, select the Exit button in the bottom left corner.

The gauge parameter is set as speed by default, but you can change it by tapping the Select button to open the parameter list. You can assign any data parameter that is available from the connected VBOX to the Target Graph (apart from UTC Time, Longitude, Latitude, Solution Type, Trigger, Filename, Logging Status, Memory Used, and
KF Status).
Use the scroll bar on the right-hand side of the selection screen to navigate through the options and tap the desired parameter to confirm your selection.
Return to the Settings screen by tapping the Exit button in the bottom left corner.
You can find a list of available parameters here.
You can smooth the Target data if required. The input value determines the number of previous data samples used to smooth the displayed data. It does not affect any of the performance results or the logged data of the connected unit.
To enable smoothing, tap the current value (off by default) and use the presented keypad to enter the number of previous data samples you would like to use within the display smoothing.
Save your selected value by tapping the Confirm button in the bottom right corner. Tap the Cancel button in the bottom left corner to return to the Settings screen without saving.
Notes:
- The maximum input value is 99.
- Smoothing can introduce a slight delay to the displayed value.
The target value will be located at the centre of the gauge. You can define this by tapping the value box and using the presented keypad to define the required value (set as 240 by default).
Save your selected value by tapping the Confirm button in the bottom right corner. Tap the Cancel button in the bottom left corner to return to the Settings screen without saving.
Notes:
- The maximum input value is 99999.
- The minimum input value is -99999 (when the signed parameter is selected, otherwise 0).
- One decimal place resolution is available to values under 10000.
Define the tolerance (target zone) displayed on either side of the target value. You can define the colour used for this zone (red by default) by tapping on the Target Zone option in the Colours settings area.
The value is set to 2 by default, but you can tap the value box and use the presented keypad to define the required value. By using the default +/- tolerance value of 2 as an example, for a target value of 100, the target zone would be from 98 – 102.
Save the selected value by tapping the Confirm button in the bottom right corner. Tap the Cancel button in the bottom left corner to return to the Settings screen without saving.
Notes:
- The maximum input value is 9999.
- The minimum input value is 0.1.
- One decimal place resolution is available to values under 1000.
This option defines the range of the background bar (set as 10 by default). You can change the colour used for this bar (green by default) by tapping on the Bar option in the Colours settings area.
To change the range value, tap the value box and use the presented keypad to select the required value. Using the default range value of 10 as an example, for a target value of 100, the bar range would be from 95 – 105.
Save the selected value by tapping the Confirm button in the bottom right corner. Tap the Cancel button in the bottom left corner to return to the Settings screen without saving.
Notes:
- The maximum input value is 9999.
- The minimum input value is double the Target Value Tolerance setting.
- One decimal place resolution is available to values under 1000.
The Axis Spacing value tells you how much spacing there is between each gauge increment marker. This value changes depending on the Target Range Value.
