Igps-Cf™ User's Tips - Pharos iGPS-CF User Manual

1. Turn on your iGPS-CF™ in an open place.
2. Stay still for approximately one minute for your iGPS- CF™ to
initially acquire enough satellites to give you an accurate position. It
may take longer if you are moving.
3. If the satellite signals cannot be found (for instance, in an urban area),
the following steps are suggested:
a. If you are in a car, plug the external active antenna into
iGPS-CF™ and place the antenna as close to the
windshield as possible or on the roof.
b. Move to an open space or point iGPS-CF™ toward an open
sky with less blockages.
4. iGPS-CF™ comes with a built-in battery for faster position
acquisition. The battery lasts about 4 days. Please recharge the
battery for about 4 hours regularly.
5. Please have PDA recharged when either the COM port or iGPS-CF™
is not recognized by the PDA due to low battery problem in PDA.
6. Handle the MMCX connector carefully (hold the metal part not the
cable) when plug or unplug the active antenna.
7. Do not leave the unit under the sun for a long period of time.
8. iGPS-CF™ receiver's performance may be affected by:
a. Tinted metallic windows
b. Under high raised buildings, bridges, or in tunnels
c. Near high voltage cables, CB radios, or radio base stations
d. CD ROM player
