Frequently asked questions / troubleshooting
Q: Why can't I inst
all the WinFast Na
viga
tor
utilit
y on my
PDA?
A: WinFast Navigator is a GPS testing
application that can be installed
direc
t
ly on most PDAs
. If you enc
ounter problems during installation,
loc
a
te a file called Navigator.ARM.CAB in the installa
tion f
older
. Cop
y
th
is file
to an
y f
older on your PD
A and install WinF
ast Na
vigator b
y
ta
pping the
file icon.
Q: Why does the GPS positioning fail, ev
en though the satellite signal
appears to be normal on my
PDA?
A:
A possible reason for this is that the GPS has not been used for a wh
ile
and
needs to be reset. Follo
w the steps below to re

r a period longer than tw
o
w
eeks or if y
our curren
t locati
on is at a distance gr
eater than 500 km from
the previous location of
positioning,
then you
will
need to perform Cold

A: Wi
nFast Na
vigator
is an ap
plication that yo
u can use to
test the
GPS
and
verify your position. You need to use your own ma
p utilit
y to view y
our
position

Q: Why
does the po
sition of the car
drif
t around on the map ev
en when my
PD
A and GPS 9559X ar
e properly positioned?
24
Appendix
A: This might be caused by
unstable satellite signals or weak signals
resulting fr
om heavil
y blocked areas,
which affect the positioning of the
car on the map.
Q: Why is there
no sign of signal
tr
ansmission in
my map utilit
y pr
ogram
and p
ositionin
g fails even
though my GPS is c
onnected?
A: This
mi
ght be caused by incorr
ect CO
M port settings. Most
PDA
map
utility pr
ogr
ams search for
GPS device automatically and the GPS
device
is
not f
ound. It is recommended that you se
t the CO
M port settings
manually in
stead.
Q: Why can't I get
the GPS to
position correc
tly at home or near areas close
to windows?
A: The GPS 9559X is intended to be used f
or outdoor positioning and
na
vigation because satellite sign
als can
not be received with sufficien
t
signal strength indo
ors. Moreover, it take
s a while for the GPS to complete
the position
i
ng
the first t
ime it is used.
Hence, positioning
must be done
out
d
oors where satel
lit
e si
gnals can be received properly.
