Using your C5m/F5m
Using Mobile Broadband with GNSS 45
Enabling Mobile Broadband with GNSS
You can purchase a C5m/F5m Tablet PC with an optional embedded mobile broadband
module that enables you to connect to a variety of mobile broadband networks for sending
and receiving data wirelessly. You can typically use mobile broadband anywhere you can
use your mobile phone.
The mobile broadband module includes Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) support.
The GNSS receiver uses GPS and GLONASS satellites to determine the current location,
altitude, heading, and horizontal velocity of the C5m/F5m. You don’t need a network
connection or an account with a mobile broadband network carrier to use the GNSS
receiver. You can use it with your preferred mapping applications to find your current and
desired locations.
Before you can establish a Mobile Broadband connection or use the Mobile Broadband
GNSS receiver, you must ensure that Mobile Broadband with GNSS is enabled in Motion
Tablet Center. Open Motion Tablet Center, tap
Power
and ensure that the switch beside
Mobile
Broadband
is turned on.
