Using GPS functions

Using GPS functions

With a GPS receiver and navigation software you can use the Pocket PC as a navigation system. Depending on the equipment, the GPS receiver is either integrated or available as an external accessory.

i	Map materials for your Pocket PC are available from retailers on DVD or on memory cards
	or via an online shop.

You have two options for using the navigation software on your Pocket PC:

●You can use the navigation software on a preinstalled expansion card.

●You can install the navigation software via your computer, e.g. from a DVD.

i	To register your navigation software you will require the serial number of the navigation
	software and possibly also the device ID of your Pocket PC.

The device ID will be displayed after the initial start-up of the navigation software if necessary.

►Register your navigation software and your map materials as described in the instructions for the navigation software.

A description of how to use the navigation software is provided in the instructions on the navigation software.

i	If the reception signal is weak, you can connect an external GPS antenna. The external
	GPS antenna improves performance under difficult reception conditions.

The external GPS antenna is available as an accessory. GPS connects to COM6 at 9600 Bit/s.

Detailed information on this topic can be found in the help file on your Pocket PC.

FSC GPSLocator

FSC GPSLocator is demonstration software which illustrates how the GPS receiver of your Pocket LOOX device works.

When you start the FSC GPSLocator the GPS receiver is also activated. Exiting the programme deactivates the GPS receiver.

The GPS module is calibrated the first time you start it. This can take several minutes. When you subsequently start the device your GPS receiver will be ready for use in just a few seconds.

Inside a building you will not normally be able to receive a GPS signal. It is therefore best to calibrate the GPS receiver out in the open.
