The.GPS..module..works..simultaneously..with..GPS..and..GLONASS..signal..The.internal..memory..
and.built-in.module.of.the.device.allow.the.user.to.obtain.the.coordinates.and.save.them.together.
with.several..parameters:.date,.time,.burial.depth.and.current.(if.available).and.operating.frequency..
..The.GPS.module.is.enabled.from.the.main.menu.of.the.receiver..
When.you.open.GPS.
.menu.entry.happens.the.following:.
1...The.receiver.issues.module.connection.command.
2. .. If. a. response. from. the. module. is. received,. the. receiver. requests. the. number. of. available....
GPS..points.in.module’s.memory.and.shows.this.information.on.the.screen.(see.fig.1).
3....If..the..module..doesn’t..respond,..the..receiver..shows..the..message..“GPS..module..not..
found”..(see.fig.2).
After..turning..on.the.GPS..module,..an..icon..starts..to..blink..in..a..status..bar..of..the..receiver...It..
will..blink..while.the.receiver.is.trying.to.connect.to.the.satellites...When.the.icon.stops.blinking,.it.
means.that..the..connection..is..established,..and..the..coordinates..may..be..obtained...Also,..there..
is..a..small..scale.near.GPS.icon.which.represents.GPS.signal.level..Time.of.satellite.detection.
depends.on.the.weather,..availability.of.the.satellite.and.can.take.up.to.10.minutes..
The.display.of.the.receiver.has.the.following.indication:
1).GPS.module.status:.a).GPS.off,..b).Looking.for.GPS.satellites
Current.GPS.coordinates.(longitude.and.latitude.in.degrees.in.5.digit.precision)
c).GPS.module.error.
2).GPS.ON/OFF.button.
3).GPS.module.memory.status:.shows.the.number.of.saved.points.in.relation.to.available.memory.
(“13/2300”)..
4).YES/NO.buttons.for.module.memory.clearance:.If.you.select.“Yes”,.you.will.see.the.confirm..
dialogue.window...Memory.clearance.is.an.irreversible.action..
.“POINT”.is.a.form.of.entry.in.the.device’s.or.PC’s.memory...It.holds.current.operating.frequency.
of..the..receiver,..burial..depth..of..the..located.utility.(if..available),.the.current..going..through..the.
utility.(if..available),.current..longitude..and..latitude..of..the..receiver..position..(if.available).and.also.
current.date.and.time.(if.available).
Saving..of..the..point..is..performed..by..pressing.the.GPS..button.
.on..the..receiver...If.the..GPS..
module..is.active,.it.finds.the.necessary.number.of.satellites.and.indicates.coordinates.in.the.GPS.
menu..It.means.that.the.following.data.will.be.written.in.the.memory:.current.coordinates,.date.and.
time..If.the.receiver.indicates.burial.depth.and/or.current.flowing.through.the.utility.while.saving.of.
the.point.is.enabled,.this.data.will.also.be.saved.in.receiver’s.memory..
Operating. mode. of. the. receiver. is. saved. every. time. because. it. is. constantly. available.. When.
saving.the.data.to.receiver.memory,.you.will.see.a.corresponding.message.“Saving.new.
point.#X”.(where.X.–.is.a.serial.number.of.the.point)..The.receiver.can.store.up.to.2300.points..
Uploading. the. data. to. a. PC. can. be. performed. via. USB. cable. and. special. software. –. Mapping.
Program..
