If set, this node is at a fixed position. The device will generate GPS updates at the regular `gps_update_interval`, but use whatever the last lat/lon/alt it saved for the node. The lat/lon/alt can be set by an internal GPS or with the help of the mobile device's GPS.
### gps_accept_2d
Determines whether the device should accept 2D GPS fixes. By default, only 3D fixes are accepted (during a 2D fix, altitude values are unreliable and will be excluded).
### gps_attempt_time
Determines the amount of time that a GPS fix should be allowed to take. The default is every 30 seconds. If you increase this value, it will allow the device that amount of time in seconds to acquire coordinates. If the device is unable to get a fix, it will turn off until the next interval. GPS coordinates are updated every [`gps_update_interval`](#gps_update_interval) seconds.

Complements `position_broadcast_secs` (doesn't override that setting) but will apply an algorithm to more frequently update your mesh network if you are in motion and then throttle it down when you are standing still. If you use this feature, it's best to leave `position_broadcast_secs` at the default.
`position_broadcast_smart` will calculate an ideal position update interval based on the data rate of your selected channel configuration.
`position_broadcast_smart` will calculate an ideal position update interval based on the data rate of your selected channel configuration.
As an example, if you configure your radio to use **Long Range / Fast**, if you have traveled at least 144 meters and it's been at least 61 seconds since the last position update, a new position broadcast will be sent out. If you've moved less than 144 meters, we will broadcast the position based on the value of `position_broadcast_secs`.
