Using the Rino 130 Radio Features
Your Rino 130 unit provides many features to enhance
your radio experience, such as transmitting your location
or any location and receiving contact information. This
section reviews some of the advanced radio features.
Refer to the “Features” section for information on all of
the features of the Rino 130.
Peer-to-Peer Positioning
The Rino 130’s most unique feature is being able to send
its location to another Rino, which is called Peer-to-
Peer positioning. With peer-to-peer positioning enabled
(see the “Setup Radio” section) and a GPS position,
whenever you press and release either the Call button or
the Talk button, the Rino 130 automatically sends out its
location. This information is available to all other Rino
users that are monitoring the same channel and squelch
code. This feature allows you to track the movement
of other Rino users and even navigate to their location.
Locations may only be sent once every 30 seconds due to
FCC restrictions. Your Rino 130 can respond to polling
requests from other units more frequently.
To transmit your location to other Rino users:
1. Enable Send Location (see the “Setup Radio”
section).
2. Press and release either the Talk or Call button.
A flag on the top Status Bar or in Mark’s hand
indicates the unit is ready to transmit its position.
New Contact Page Overview

user, a New Contact page is displayed. From the New
Contact page you can show their location on your Map,
Goto their location, or add them to your contact list
(select OK). Press Page to ignore this contact.
