In default mode (AUTOMATIC), the first available alignment type is used to complete an alignment of the SPAN system.

For additional details on the available alignment mode options see System Start-Up and Alignment Techniques.

NVM Seeded and Manual (SETINITAZIMUTH command) alignments are valid for all alignment modes and will supersede all other options if valid and available.
