[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 660494, member: 927"] Charley, I usually get the corporate people to help me with individual situations. Here is the best that I can explain it. The DIAD will show a RED target when the expected Lat / Lon for a delivery is more than 250 feet away from the current DIAD Lat / Long. I do not think that the number of satellites is really an impact for the current DIAD reading. They tell me that the DIAD ignores these low confidence readings and shows a YELLOW target then? Has that been your experience? If you have a bad DIAD where the radios antennae are misaligned, the DIAD lat / lon may look valid, but its not. I personally have not seen much of these, but people on this board say they have. The other side of the coin is that a DIAD is getting a good Lat / Lon from GPS, but the expected Lat / Lon for an address is off. If you deliver an package to a location different than where its addressed, the DIAD will say you are at the wrong place. Now, if you consistently deliver a package to a different address than on the package, the expected location now becomes the "left at" location. If the next driver delivers that package to the address on the package, he / she will be told they are at the wrong place. Its a "learning system" After two deliveries (within 250' of each other) it creates the expected lat / lon. The third delivery will move the lat / lon a little. The fourth, etc. will move it again. After many deliveries (especially consistent ones), the delivery location is very, very good. P-Man [/QUOTE]
