• GPS hardware port: COM4

• Baud rate: 57600

Some mapping or GPS navigation software may not be compatible with the device, please consult with the software provider before installing the software.

Receiving Better Satellite Signals

GPS positioning is limited by bad weather (e.g. rainy or cloudy days) and usage location (e.g. tall buildings, tunnels, underpasses, trees, bridges…etc). Typically, GPS

does not work indoors, nor can GPS signals penetrate buildings, car sun shades and

heat reective lm with metallic content. It can take several minutes the rst time you establish a GPS connection. If you nd

the device cannot detect the satellite signal, try the following:

• Move the device to an open space without tall buildings or trees around it.

• Make sure there are no wireless communication products (e.g. radar-detecting devices and mobile phones) nearby since these products may cause unstable

signal reception.

• Connect an external Bluetooth GPS receiver (not included in the package) to the

device in order to enhance the reception.

Important Notice about Using GPS

• The GPS is built and operated by the US Defense Department. The accuracy of

location data may be affected by changes made by the Department.

• GPS should not be used for precise location measurement. It can only be used as a

navigation aid.

• Do not turn on the car engine when the device is connected to the car charger (not included in the package) as this may damage the device.
