Using GPS

The CS40 comes equipped with an integrated Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver. It can deliver standards-based National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) data strings to GPS applications.

Chapter 6 — Using GPS

About the Integrated GPS on Your Computer

Intermec recommends that you use the GPS Intermediate Driver (GPSID) instead of directly accessing the GPS hardware. The GPSID is a Microsoft software component that interacts between applications and the GPS hardware. The GPSID supports Extended Ephemeris, which enhances GPS performance by:

• reducing the amount of time it takes your GPS receiver to acquire

a fix.

• eliminating the need to obtain precise satellite data information

from the GPS satellites.

As a Microsoft software component, the GPSID also:

• allows multiple applications to simultaneously access the GPS data

stream.

• provides access to GPS data without requiring applications to

recognize and parse NMEA syntax.

Using the GPSID Installed on the Computer

To use the GPSID installed on your mobile computer, you need to configure the GPSID settings.

48 CS40 Mobile Computer User’s Manual

Chapter 6 — Using GPS

To configure your GPSID settings:

Improving GPS Performance on the Computer

Use the iGPS application to improve the performance of the GPS on your computer. The integrated GPS module has three operating modes.

Integrated GPS Operating Modes

Operating Mode Description

Standalone In Standalone mode, the GPS module relies solely on GPS

satellites to determine position.

MS Assisted In MS Assisted mode, the computer can determine

position without receiving GPS signals directly from satellites; instead, the computer receives GPS signals and information provided by the cellular network. Even when the computer can receive a satellite signal, MS Assisted can improve position accuracy and reduce the time to determine initial position (Time-To-First-Fix). Check with your cell phone carrier for availability and pricing for MS Assisted service.

gpsOneXTRA™ Qualcomm’s gpsOneXTRA Assistance technology

provides enhanced operation for Standalone GPS. This option enables the UMTS-enabled computer to automatically download a small assistance data file from the XTRA servers through a brief internet access session.

Another option you can configure with iGPS is the fix interval. The fix interval defines how often the GPS should provide new information. Larger intervals use less power, but many applications require small intervals to work correctly. The default for fix interval is 4.

Note: Anytime you change the GPS settings, the phone module automatically resets. This reset does not affect the functionality of the computer.

To improve GPS performance using iGPS:

1 Go to Start > Settings > System > iGPS.

2 In the Fix Interval field, enter a value for the fix interval. The

default setting is 4 and should be optimized for most applications.
