Q Battery Saver (GPS Save)

This function will turn the GPS power source Off
after the programmed timer expires if position data
is not determined during the maximum catching time
(approximately 5 minutes). To prevent unnecessary
battery consumption, when there are many reception
satellites, the GPS is stabilized and position data can
be determined, the GPS power source repeatedly turns
On and Off.

1 Enter Menu mode and access Menu 201.

2 Set GPS Off time to “Off”, 1, 2, 4, 8, or “Auto”.

Auto:

When set to Auto, the GPS Off time starts

at 1 minute for the first time, then progresses to 2
minutes, 4 minutes and 8 minutes each additional time.
The GPS Off time remains at 8 minutes thereafter.
However, after having determined your position for the
duration, if the GPS cannot pinpoint your location, the
GPS Off time will restart at 1 minute.

Note:
X Position precision may be improved by setting the Batter

Saver (GPS Save) function to “Off”.

X You cannot set the SBAS function to “On” when the Batter

Saver (GPS Save) function is 1, 2, 4, 8, or Auto. Set the
Battery Saver (GPS Save) function to “Off”.
