Settings
● Get fix now — This button starts a one-time fix (not displayed if GPS Mode is Continuous or a
GPS session is already in progress). If you change the value from
Continuous to One-time, you
must click
Save before your changes take effect and the fix becomes possible.
● Mapping Service — This determines the mapping service (for example, Google Maps or
MapQuest) that displays the GPS results (in a separate browser window).
● Performance Value — This specifies the amount of time the device should wait for a satellite to
be discovered.
䡲 Automatic — The device automatically determines the most appropriate setting to use.
䡲 Manual — In the input field, enter the number of seconds the device should wait for a
satellite to be discovered. If this time is exceeded, an error is reported.
● Accuracy
䡲 Automatic — The device automatically determines the most appropriate setting to use.
䡲 Manual — In the input field, enter the number of meters to which the data must be accurate.
Note: If the value is very small (that is, very high accuracy), the fix may fail.
● Fix Rate — The smaller the number, the more up-to-date the location tracking will be, at the cost
of shorter battery life of the device. This setting is available only if
GPS Mode is set to
Continuous.
● Metric Units — This specifies whether to use the metric system when displaying the GPS results
(for example, the altitude, speed, HEPE).
● Show GPS Data or Hide GPS Data — This specifies whether the GPS data should be shown in
the lower part of the window.
