think this reference is 'open' to read on internet

Global positioning systems, inertial ... - Google Books

Don't know what limited 'ATTITUDE' mode is but suspect its as stated above. INS senses true north by sensing earth's rotation when platform is at rest: direction of 'g' gives local horizontal. With schuler tuned system transport rate couples error effects to limit divergence.
