Select whether or not to use the internal GPS receiver power save function.
The power save function turns OFF power to the GPS receiver to conserve

When this function is ON, and if the GPS receiver does not receive signals
from a satellite for 5 minutes, the power save function will turn OFF the GPS
receiver for this set period of time.
• OFF : The receiver is continuously ON.
• 1, 2, 4, 8 min : When the receiver cannot receive signals from a satellite
for 5 minutes, the GPS receiver power is turned OFF for the
selected periods (1, 2, 4 or 8 minutes). After this period, the
receiver resumes receiving.
• Auto : When the receiver cannot receive signals from a satellite
for 5 minutes, the GPS receiver power is turned OFF for 1
minute. After this period, the receiver resumes receiving.
The power save interval time extends to 2, 4 and then 8
minutes when receiving no signals for another 5 minutes,
respectively.
Once the GPS receiver receives initial position data, the
power save interval is set back to 1 minute, if it receives no
signals for 5 minutes.
