Using GPS with Map Software

You can use the GPS feature of your handset 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 handset 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 handset to your laptop (or other device) with a data cable and set your handset to transmit data (see “Getting Started” on page 51). Your handset then provides your approximate location to the device running the map software, which displays your location on a map. Your handset provides an updated location every second and the map software displays your changing location on its map.

See “Enhancing GPS Performance” on page 47 for more details on obtaining good location information.

Note: Because your handset is continuously determining your location, using the GPS feature of your handset with map software uses the handset’s battery power quickly.

Software Compatibility

Your handset sends location information to your laptop or other device using the standard National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) format. Your handset supports output messages in NMEA-0183 format and supports the following NMEA-0183 sentences: GGA, GLL, GSA, GSV, RMC, and VTG.

The map software running on your laptop or other device must support NMEA 3.0.

I530 specifications

The Motorola i530 is an iconic device that represents the ruggedness and functionality that Motorola stood for during the early 2000s. Built for durability and practicality, the i530 was specifically designed for users in demanding environments, such as construction sites and outdoor activities, where the ability to withstand harsh conditions is crucial.

One of the key features of the Motorola i530 is its rugged design. The device is housed in a sturdy casing that meets military specifications for dust, shock, and moisture resistance. This means that the phone can easily endure rough handling and exposure to the elements, making it an excellent choice for professionals who require reliable communication in challenging situations. With its clamshell design, the i530 also features a protective outer shell that minimizes the risk of accidental damage.

In terms of technology, the i530 operates on the iDEN network, which combines both cellular and radio communications in one device. This unique capability allows users to make traditional phone calls while also having the option of pushing-to-talk (PTT) functionality, similar to a walkie-talkie. This feature is particularly beneficial for teams working in close proximity, enabling instant communication without the need for phone calls.

The Motorola i530 is equipped with a 1.5-inch monochrome display that, while small by today’s standards, was adequate for the limited tasks it was designed to perform. The interface is straightforward, prioritizing essential functions over flashy graphics. Users can easily navigate through menus and access features such as contact lists, messaging, and various tools.

Battery life is another highlight of the i530, known for its long-lasting performance which is critical for those who spend extended periods away from charging facilities. This durability is complemented by the device’s overall lightweight build, ensuring that it can be carried comfortably throughout the day.

Other notable characteristics of the Motorola i530 include customizable ringtones, an address book for storing contacts, and basic messaging capability. While it lacks some modern features such as a camera or advanced apps, its focus on functionality and resilience has earned it a dedicated user base. The Motorola i530 remains a testament to a time when communication devices prioritized toughness and reliability above all else.
