Operation

Acquiring satellite signals may take a few minutes. It is best to be outside and have a clear, unobstructed view of
the sky. Without a clear view, acquisition takes much longer and could result in the MC75 being unable to compute
the initial position quickly. When operating the device indoors access to the GPS signals may be limited or
unavailable.
NOTE When using a GPS navigation application, ensure that the MC75 does not go into suspend mode. If the MC75
suspends then the power to the GPS radio is removed. Upon resume the GPS receiver must reacquire a valid GPS
signal, resulting in a a delay of positional information.

GPS Maps on microSD Cards

GPS navigation software vendors may sell maps on microSD cards. If using a microSD card with the GPS
navigation software:

Losing the GPS Signal While in a Vehicle

GPS performance on the MC75 may be affected if the vehicle has thermal glass windows and windshields, which
can block the MC75 from receiving a GPS signal from satellites. To improve GPS signal strength, place the MC75
where there is a clear view of the sky. A direct line of sight is required between the MC75 and the GPS satellites to
access information from the satellites.
The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a system that allows the user to track their position anywhere on the earth.

Assisted GPS

GPS can be used in stand-alone or Assisted GPS (A-GPS) modes. A Stand-alone GPS receiver downloads data
from GPS satellites. It can take several minutes to get a fix. By using GPS Location servers, A-GPS dramatically
