  • Page 6: General Descriptions

    Scaring off by an alarm sound is an addition option that must be configured. Vibrations can be monitored, living beings recognised with the integrated motion detector and noises determined. In case of alarm, the GX103+GPS sends an alarm text message to up to 6 saved phone number and is able to call back a phone number afterwards(optionally with the speaker deactivated, silent mode).
  • Page 7 Important note on accuracy of GPS positions: Accuracy of the GPS position determined depends on many factors. Since the GX103+GPS leaves the GPS receiver off at all times for runtime reasons in battery-powered operation, this will negatively influence accuracy. The GPS signal as such is overlaid by correction data that are saved in the device and will accelerate, among others, satellite search.
