IMPORTANT: Things to Keep in Mind GPS (Global Positioning System) Enabled You can also use the GPS feature to view your approximate location. Location information appears on the phone’s display. Your phone’s GPS Enabled feature uses information from Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites orbiting the Earth to determine the approximate geographical location of your phone, expressed as latitude and longitude.
GPS (Global Positioning System) Enabled • Between tall buildings or under dense tree-cover • Near a powerful radio or television tower • When your GPS antenna is covered (for example, by your hand or other object) or facing the ground • In temperature extremes outside the operating limits of your phone While the GPS feature of your phone can be a valuable navigational aid, it does not replace the need for careful navigating and good judgment. Never rely solely on one device for navigation.
Viewing Your Approximate Location When you make an emergency 911 call, the GPS feature of your phone begins to seek information to calculate your approximate location. It will take the GPS feature of your phone some time to determine your approximate location. Even where your phone has good access to sufficient GPS satellite signals and network assist data, it may take 30 seconds or more to determine the approximate location. This time will increase where there is reduced access to satellite signals.
GPS (Global Positioning System) Enabled • The estimated accuracy of the calculated location. This estimate of accuracy is only a very rough estimate and may vary substantially from the actual accuracy of the approximate location information reported. • The number of satellites used to calculate the location. In general, more satellites make for better accuracy. To calculate your location again: Press A under Refresh.
Enhancing GPS Performance To improve accuracy and increase your chances of a successful calculation, do the following while your phone is determining your approximate location: • Stay in the open. The GPS feature works best where there is nothing between your phone and a large amount of open sky. If possible, go outside, away from tall buildings and foliage. While performance in a building is improved by moving closer to windows, glass with certain sun shielding films may block satellite signals.
GPS (Global Positioning System) Enabled • Stand still. If possible, stand still until your phone is finished determining your location. Moving your phone at a walking pace while your phone is calculating your approximate location may substantially decrease GPS performance. • In a car. When using the GPS Enabled feature in a car, position your phone so that the GPS antenna has good access to GPS signals through the car’s windows.
Setting Privacy Options Note: Privacy options do not apply to the transmission of location information during emergency 911 calls. To set your GPS privacy options: 1 From the main menu, select GPS > Privacy. 2 If your GPS PIN security feature is enabled, enter your GPS PIN. (See “Setting the GPS PIN Security Feature” for more information.) 3 Select the privacy option you want: • Restricted — No Java or similar software applications may view the location of your phone.
GPS (Global Positioning System) Enabled Using GPS with Map Software Software Compatibility You can use the GPS feature of your phone to provide approximate location data to a laptop computer or similar device that is running interactive map software such as that made by DeLorme or Microsoft. This way, if your phone has good access to GPS signals, your approximate position on a map can be made available as you travel in a vehicle.
Using GPS with Map Software 2 With the phone’s display facing up, insert the data cable’s connector into the accessory connector, until you hear a click. • Flow control: Hardware To set your phone to send location information to your laptop or other device: 1 From the main menu, select GPS > Interface. 2 Set NMEA OUT to On. Your phone is now sending location data to your laptop or other device. To stop your phone from sending location data to your laptop or other device: Set NMEA OUT to Off.
