Capture and record the location data

 

1. 

With the  Geotagger  N2 connected to the camera, turn the N2 on. The LED on the N2 will  light and 
blink  quickly,  after  a while  will  slow  down  and  at  last steady,  that  means  the  N2  is  being  fixed  and 
ready to supply the GPS data. 

 
 

2. 

Turn the camera on, a  GPS icon will be displayed in the control panel on top of the camera. 

 

3. 

To view GPS data, select GPS > Position in the camera setup menu (this option is not available with D2X, 
D2XS, D2HS, and D200 cameras). The current latitude, longitude, altitude, heading , and UTC will be 
displayed as below.( A electronic compass is equipped the Geotagger N2 , which can supply the compass 
heading to the photo file.) 

 

4. 

Take pictures, GPS data and the heading will be recorded with each photograph. 
 
( With the Geotagger N2  on “Auto”switch position,  the geotagger N2 will turn on when the camera is 
turned on and will turn off when the camera is turned off. Use-friendly, power saved.)   

 

Note 
 

    To get a quick fix, please take the Geotagger N2 and your camera to an open outside space and stand 

still. 

    If there is no blinking GPS icon in the control panel, check the connection, and make sure the switch is 

in the correct position.
