Chapter 11 Using GPS 11.1 Guidelines and Preparation for Using GPS 11.2 Downloading Satellite Data via QuickGPS 11.3 Using TomTom NAVIGATOR 11.
Using GPS 11.1 Guidelines and Preparation for Using GPS • Do not operate the GPS system while driving. The plotted GPS route is only for driving reference. It should not interfere with actual driving behavior. • Please use the GPS system cautiously. Users shall be liable for any damages resulting from negligent operation of the system. • The GPS signal cannot pass through solid non-transparent objects.
Using GPS 175 • When using the device inside a vehicle, use the car holder to mount the device securely in place. Avoid placing the device in the areas shown in the following diagram: 1 Do not place where it will block the driver’s vision. 2 Do not place where air bags could deploy. 3 Do not place anywhere in the vehicle without securing the device in the holder.
Using GPS 11.2 Downloading Satellite Data via QuickGPS Before you start to use your device for GPS navigation, open the QuickGPS program first to download ephemeris data (current satellite position and timing information) onto your device. This data is needed to determine the GPS position of your current location. QuickGPS downloads ephemeris data from a Web server, instead of from the satellites, using the Internet connection on your device, which can be via ActiveSync or 3G/GPRS.
Using GPS 177 Download options To configure download times, tap Menu > Options and choose from the available options: • Remind me when data expires. Enables your device to display a reminder message when the validity of the ephemeris data has expired. When you see the reminder message, tap Menu to dismiss the reminder or to set the snooze time so that you will be reminded again. Tap OK to open the QuickGPS program and download the latest data. • • Autodownload when data expires.
