Operation
1. How to use battery
1-1 Charging battery more than 8 hours
Before first time using IGO-08A’s battery, user has to charge the battery more than 8 hours. Connect travel charger or car charger with this device DC5V charge socket. The Power LED(Red)lighten indicates charging,
the red LED goes off indicates finish charging.
1-2. Battery capacity check
Press the Power Switch for 1 second when the IGO-08A is power on; the circle LED shows battery capacity. Each LED equals 12.5% power. Eight LED lighten shows full battery. We strongly recommend user to charge while under three LEDs.
2. Turn on IGO-08A and wait for Bluetooth device’ connection.
LED will show below status:
Bluetooth LED(Blue)will blink quickly if it is used first
time or link switch have been activated by users.
waiting for pairing or connecting with other Bluetooth
device)
Bluetooth LED(Blue)will blink slowly if it is connecting
successfully.
The GPS LED
Green)will blink slowly two second later

after positioning successfully.
3. How to active Bluetooth enabled device
There are many Bluetooth enable devices like PDA or Bluetooth dangle on the market, which direct connect with IGO-08A. Each one may have different Bluetooth setup procedure. Please refer to their user manual for detail instruction.
Activate Bluetooth search and connect function of Bluetooth PDA or dangle. A virtual comport will be assigned after Bluetooth connection is successful.
Every time you want to connect IGO-08A with a new Master Bluetooth device, which never pair before, user has to push pairing switch of your master bluetooth device first. (Bluetooth LED will blink quickly) Second, enable Master Bluetooth device’ search Bluetooth device function, master Bluetooth device will take few seconds fo find GPS and ask for keying pass key. After entering valid PASS KEY, connection will be setup. (Please refer to Bluetooth PDA or other master Bluetooth device for details).
The PASS KEY (or PIN CODE) for IGO-08A is “0000”.
4. Running GPS navigation software
Verify and select Bluetooth virtual comport with default baud rate for navigation software, then start to run navigation software. Note: Make sure the comport number of PC is the same as Bluetooth virtual comport number.

5. How does GPS Compass work?
5-1.GPS Compass Calibration
Calibrate the GPS receiver before using.
1. Long press the Switch 1 () for 2 second to enter
Calibration mode, the Circle LED will lighten. Set GPS receiver on your car and turn around for 360°. Fix the
bottom (Battery bolt) of IGO-08A to the same direction as your car’s head to run Compass calibration. Long press Switch 1 () Digital Compass function is on now.
2. Do not put magnetic object close to GPS receiver to avoid
of Compass function inefficacy.
3. Set the GPS receiver horizontal during using Compass
function.
4. In order to get the best accuracy, please run Compass
calibration each time you place IGO-08A on different cars.
again for 2 second to finish calibration.
5-2. GPS Compass setting
1. Short press Switch 1 () to switch Compass On/OFF
2. IGO-08A will check the direction when Digital Compass is
on. When the moving speed is over 20km, GPS receiver’s direction adopts the satellite’s data; if the speed is less than 20km, GPS receiver’s direction adopts the Digital Compass’s data.
3. The GPS get miscarriage and wrong direction easily

during low speed. Switch to Digital Compass mode to increase GPS Navigation efficiency.
4. We recommend user to turn off Digital compass heading
in magnetic field. (Short press Switch 1 ())
6. Data logger
1. GPS Receiver could save 25806 data by build-in flash
memory.
2. When 25806 data is full, it will save from the beginning
and original data will be covered.
3. IGO-08A supports two kinds of recording mode
Driving mode: distance unit Hiking mode: time unit
4. Before connecting IGO-08A with your PC to run Data
logger setup and download, please shut down the GPS Receiver. (Long press Switch 2 () for 2 seconds)
5. You could shut down BT function (Short press Switch 2
() key) to extend the battery’s operating hour when using Data logger but not navigation function.
