select the mode for which you want to use the GPS. Leave GeoAssist running
while in use and collecting data.
GPS COM Port: COM 9 GPS Baud Rate: 9600 While in Canopy mode, it is best to walk directly to target and stop to collect
data. Wandering around target or moving the unit aimlessly may cause
inaccurate data.
If GPS performance is slow, reset the handheld.
Handheld Settings and Best Practices
Begin each day by resetting the handheld. This is normal practice for most
devices and will help with performance.
For best results and when possible, charge the device via the provided AC wall
