Using GPS with Map Software

7 Press A under Ok.
Using GPS with Map Software
You can use the GPS feature of your phone to
provide approximate location data to a laptop
computer or similar device that is running interactive
map software such as that made by DeLorme or
Microsoft. This way, if your phone has good access
to GPS signals, your approximate position on a map
can be made available as you travel in a vehicle.
To do this, connect your phone to your laptop (or
other device) with a data cable and set your phone
to transmit data (see "Getting Started" on page 70).
Your phone then provides your approximate location
to the device running the map software, which
displays your location on a map. Your phone
provides an updated location every second and the
map software displays your changing location on its
map.
See "Enhancing GPS Performance" on page 66 for
more details on obtaining good location information.
Note: Because your phone is continuously
determining your location, using the GPS
feature of your phone with map software
uses the phone's battery power quickly.
