From this window, you can view or adjust these settings, or perform the following actions:

●Enable GPS — To use GPS, and to configure other GPS settings, this check box must be selected. If the GPS privacy agreement opens, you must accept it before you can use GPS.

●GPS Mode — How often the device should obtain a fix.

One-time— Use a single fix. Use this option if you’ll be using your device at the same location.

Continuous — Obtain fixes on a regular basis. Also known as auto-tracking. Useful for navigation or turn-by-turn (TBT) applications (for example, driving directions).

●Mapping Service — The mapping service (for example, Google Maps or MapQuest) that displays the GPS results (in a separate browser window).

●Performance Value — Amount of time the device should wait for a satellite to be discovered.

Automatic — The device automatically determines the most appropriate setting to use.

Manual — In the input field, enter the number of seconds the device should wait for a satellite to be discovered. If this time is exceeded, an error is reported.

●Accuracy

Automatic — The device automatically determines the most appropriate setting to use.

Manual — In the input field, enter the number of meters to which the data must be accurate. Note: If the value is very small (i.e. very high accuracy), the fix may fail.

●Fix Rate — The smaller the number, the more up-to-date the location tracking will be, at the cost of shorter battery life of the device. Available only if GPS Mode is set to Continuous.

●Metric Units — Specifies whether to use the metric system when displaying the GPS results (for example, the altitude, speed, HEPE).

●Get fix now — This button starts a one-time fix (not displayed if GPS Mode [above] is Continuous or a GPS session is already in progress). If you change the value from Continuous to One-time, you must click Save before your changes take effect and the fix becomes possible.

●Show GPS Data or Hide GPS Data
