4. Troubleshooting
1. Why does it take so long to find the satellites and have position fix?
A longer than normal time-to-first-fix of position may result the first time you use
the CF LP GPS. When the CF LP GPS is first initialized it can take several minutes
the receiver to locate the satellites in the orbit. Be sure that the CF LP GPS has a
clear and unobstructed view of sky. Buildings, heavy foliage, and other obstacles
are capable of blocking the satellite signals.
2. Why there is no satellite signal reading on my Pocket PC?
Make sure the CF LP GPS is well fitted and firmly connected with the iPAQ Pocket PC.
Second, ensure your Pocket PC is fully charged. Charge the Pocket PC before
operating the CF LP GPS and the GPS/MAP software. Consult the operation steps
described in Chapter 3 “Operation Guide”.
3. Why do I get a position fix faster some times than others?
GPS satellites are not always over the same point on the Earth. The constellation of
the GPS satellites is not geostationary. Based on satellite variation from to time,
you could experience a position fix faster some times. Buildings obstruct any GPS
signal, so setting up in a vertical window immediately blocks at least half of the sky
view.
4. Why I can’t open the MAP/GPS application in the iPAQ Pocket PC?
Check the MAP/GPS application software is completely and correctly installed on
your iPAQ Pocket PC. If necessary, re-install the GPS/MAP application. Consult and
follow the installation and operation guidance come with the user guide of the
GPS/MAP application software which you purchased.
5. I can not find the driver for the CF LP GPS inside the package, do I need
it?
There is no software driver need for the CF LP GPS itself when used with Pocket PC.
Consult and follow the installation and operation guidance come with the user guide
