PURPOSE
ENABLE THE USER TO OPERATE
THE AN/PSN-11, PRECISION
LIGHTWEIGHT GLOBAL


24 SATELLITES IN 6 ORBITS, 6-9 ARE IN VIEW
OF THE GPS RECEIVER AT ANY TIME
REQUIRES A MINIMUM OF 3 SATELLITES FOR
LOCATION AND 4 FOR ELEVATION
UTILIZES PRECISE TIMING FROM SATELLITE TO
RECEIVER TO DETERMINE LOCATION AND
ELEVATION
REQUIRES LINE OF SIGHT TO SATELLITE RCVR
COMSEC ALLOWS MAXIMUM ACCURACY

PLGR Cold Start or Standby

Cold Start:
– If PLGR has not been used for a month or more
or if the Almanac is old
– Present position greater than one degree from
last known position

Standby:
– PLGR has been used within a few days AND
present position within one degree of last
known position

PLGR CRYPTO
NSA certified that the PLGR is
considered unclassified when keyed.
Loaded yearly or as required
Can be loaded with KYK-13, KOI-18,
CYZ-10
Key material gives the PLGR greater
accuracy in positioning by accessing
secure satellites too

HOW TO ENTER A
WAYPOINT
A waypoint is the location of a point
on a desired course described by
coordinates or a physical location.
You can enter waypoints into the
PLGR by map coordinates or by a
known range, or azimuth from your
present position.

PLGR NAVIGATION
Navigating is using the PLGR to
locate various points on a map
relative to your position.
There are four navigating modes that
may be accessed and selected.

CONCLUSION
The PLGR is a great tool for
navigation, but it takes training
to ensure continued proficiency
in the use of the device and still
requires each soldier to
understand military map and
land navigation techniques.
