Part 2 Features Easy Showily is a Autoshow Track Logger with internal antenna. ublox ATR0625 used in its core is hightech component and included function of autolog record of journey. USB interface ensures easy linking with computer to read the log data or programming it any where without install any driver or software. The GPS acquisition status, the last record of time and position could all be stored in nonvolatile memory.
Part 3 Safety notes GPS (Global Positioning System) is provided by the United States government. Its accuracy may varies depending on special conditions (area at war or if it is blocked). Any control by USA will affect this system and its accuracy. If installed on the transportation device, driver must not operate this while driving. GPS performance is affected when satellite coverage is degraded as near a highrise building, in the tunnel or under a cover.

minutes, its power will be turned off (that interval can be set by yourself), until the device with movement again. The Easy Showily will not auto power on/off while shake mode is disable. And if you turn it off manually while shake mode is enable, then the shake mode will be disabled simultaneously. When the USB is used as interface: Turn the Easy Showily power off. Connect Easy Showily to USB port of computer.
Part 5 Operation notes Easy Showily will do selfcheck once it is powered. GPS start to work when LCD shows up the main screen. GPS automatically starts acquisition and autologs. If sky is clear overhead, it requires only 34 sec for acquisition. (If the data in its memory is still valid, it needs only 4~33 sec). After acquisition, Easy Showily starts record the track. For the first time if it is placed at the area well exposed to the satellite signal, this device requires approx 13 min (theoretically 12.
The earliest (oldest) data will replaced by the latest (newest) one when memory space is full (when data excesses 94000 maximum). The exact operating time would be a little difference by the situation, environment condition and the type of battery.

Part 7 Trouble shooting If the vehicle enters the tunnel. The GPS signal transmits linearly down to earth and its signal is blocked out in this situation. GPS satellite coverage gets poor because of highrise building or thick forest. Even though Easy Showily can receive reflected weak GPS signal, the data might be less accurate. The sun shade in the vehicle can partially block out GPS signal and effect good reception.
