Using HP iPAQ Quick GPS Connection Utility

Quick GPS Connection is a software application residing on the HP iPAQ that enables a faster connection time for the GPS radio to locate and lock onto overhead GPS satellites. To improve connection performance, you need to enable the HP iPAQ Quick GPS Connection Data Utility and download the latest data file. Even though the GPS radio on your

HP iPAQ is able to connect to the GPS satellites without enabling the Quick GPS Connection Utility, it may take a few minutes longer and even up to five minutes to locate the satellites if you do not use this utility.

Due to GPS satellites constantly moving through the sky, it is recommended that you download updated satellite locations to your HP iPAQ every two to three days. To download updated satellite

locations, tap in the Command bar > Download Now.

The default settings on the HP iPAQ Quick GPS Connection Utility are set where the device cannot receive automatic updates unless you enable the update feature.

To change the default settings:

1.From the Start menu, tap Settings > Connections > Quick GPS Connection icon.
