Setting the Speed Filter

The speed lter setting on the GPS 17x can help reduce unnecessary drift-alarm triggers

as well as potentially sporadic position information. The speed lter averages the data

provided by the GPS 17x to provide smoother position data updates. The speed lter is

most helpful when stationary or in low-speed situations.
