TroubleShooting
Problems
Answer
My GPS device could
not get fix with
satellite?
CR-Q1100P
should be used
outdoor
in an open
-
sky environment. Trees, bridges and build
ings
surrounding can all affect the performance of the GPS.
My CR-Q1100P could
not be used for 40
hours?
CR-Q1100P
can use
40
hours under the optimum environment. GPS would
spend more power
consumption when keep trying a position fix, buzzer enabled, and pressing POI button
frequently or under an unstable environment (bad weather, forest, buildings). Those would
take GPS more calculation and power consumption. So it would spend more power
consumption.
When I use QTravel
SW to read log from
device, it appears "No
Data in Device." Why?
CR-Q1100P will not log invalid GPS data (GPS with no fix). So please make sure to log valid GPS
data under open sky environment. If the device still cannot log, please perform a reset in
QTravel -> Config GPS and test again.
My CR-Q1100P
crashed. How can I
make get it back to
normal status?
You can find the hard reset button on the rear of the device beside USB connector, a small
hole which can be pressed by pen tip or pin to reset your device. (Hard reset will not erase the
memory data.)
