Sending An Emergency Message; Customizing Your Emergency Message - MiTAC Mio N169 Manual

Sending an Emergency Message

1. Make sure that you have defined the recipient for the emergency
message.
2. Make sure that the device has a clear view of the sky for optimal GPS
signal reception.
3. Press the center of the scroll bar for 6 seconds to activate the program. (If
you have not defined the recipient, the program will display a
notification message.)
4. The program will activate the GPS port of the device and search for the
GPS data, and then send the message. (You may use the Quick GPS
Position program for a quicker GPS position acquisition. See section 8.3
for information.)
If you have defined multiple recipients, then all recipients will receive
this message.
5. The program will automatically send notifications to let you know the
message has been sent out.
If the device has received the GPS data (in about 2 minutes), the message
will contain the longitude and latitude information. If the device fails to
receive the GPS data, then the message will only show that you need help.
