Q Battery Saver (GPS Save)
This function will turn the GPS power source Off
after the programmed timer expires if position data
is not determined during the maximum catching time
(approximately 5 minutes). To prevent unnecessary
battery consumption, when there are many reception
satellites, the GPS is stabilized and position data can
be determined, the GPS power source repeatedly turns
On and Off.
1 Enter Menu mode and access Menu 201.
2 Set GPS Off time to “Off”, 1, 2, 4, 8, or “Auto”.
Auto: When set to Auto, the GPS Off time starts
at 1 minute for the first time, then progresses to 2
minutes, 4 minutes and 8 minutes each additional time.
The GPS Off time remains at 8 minutes thereafter.
However, after having determined your position for the
duration, if the GPS cannot pinpoint your location, the
GPS Off time will restart at 1 minute.
Note:
X Position precision may be improved by setting the Batter
Saver (GPS Save) function to “Off”.
X You cannot set the SBAS function to “On” when the Batter
Saver (GPS Save) function is 1, 2, 4, 8, or Auto. Set the
