(~29 seconds). As a result, the nano will consume more battery power and the
total number of reports is significantly reduced. User is encouraged read the
Power Consumption section.
NOTE: When the SHOUT nano is in the middle of sending a report and user forces
it to power off by holding down the power
complete sending the report before shutting down. A warning message will appear
on the LCD screen and will remain until either a position report is sent or failed to
send. User can go back to the home screen by simply pressing the BACK button.
The nano logs and saves all position reports in its circular memory. When its
memory is full, the oldest reports are over-written. SatTerm can be used to
retrieve all position reports saved on the nano.
Report Rate
Report Rate option is used to set the report frequency (time between reports)
when Track On/Off is enabled. Once a report rate is selected, a new menu
appears requesting for mailbox check rate. The mailbox check rate can be the
same as the report rate. In this case, the nano checks the mailbox each time it
wakes up to send a report. If the mailbox check rate is different than the report
rate, the nano will wake up in between reports to check the mailbox without
sending a position report. The nano only offers the mailbox check rates that are
evenly divisible to the report rate.
IMPORTANT: The total number of reports the nano can send with a fully charged
battery depends on three settings—the report rate, the mailbox check rate and
the Accuracy. User is encouraged to read the Power Consumption section for
details on how these settings can affect the nano performance.
