GPS OPERATION

■ GPS Logger function

The GPS Logger function allows you to store the GPS po-
sition data (Latitude, Longitude, Altitude, Positioning state,
Course, Speed and Date) onto a microSD card, as a route.
If you use this function while driving, you can check your driv-
ing course on a mapping software. (Default setting is ON.)
NOTE: The GPS logger function requires a microSD card
installation.
• See page 10 for more details.
<About log file>
You can display your route as you move, if you import the log
file into a mapping software.
• You can see your route on the software map. The files may not be
compatible with all mapping software.
• See the PDF type Advanced Instructions for copying the log file to
your PC.
NOTE:
• This function is ON as the default setting, if you install a
microSD card, the transceiver continuously stores the po-
sition data from the GPS receiver, even if the transceiver
is rebooted. To cancel this function, turn the function OFF.
While this function is ON, and when the transceiver is
turned OFF, the log file will be closed. Then the trans-
ceiver is turned ON and positioning is carried out by the
GPS receiver, a new log file will be created.
• When the microSD card is full, this function will automati-
cally pause.
