Appendix B: Using the GPS Feature
The VTC has a built-in u-blox NEO-6Q GPS receiver module by default.
Global Positioning System (GPS) uses a constellation of 50 medium earth
orbit satellites to transmit and receive microwave signals to determine its
current location.
You need to install the third-party GPS navigation software to take advantage
of the GPS feature.
Setup and Using GPS Information
Users can use the GPSinfo.exe program to verify that the GPS is correctly
configured and working properly. Also, users can use the GPSinfo.exe pro-
gram to enable WAAS/EGNOS and power saving mode.
1. Go to Device Manager to ensure the device is installed correctly.
