GPS Warmstart: This button will initiate a Warmstart of the collar. The GPS receiver
will use the Ephemerides and other data already stored in the collar (flash memory,
remains there for roughly 2hours) and only complete them with actual satellite data.
Depending on what is already stored, it can be fast or take some time. You can abort
the Warmstart by changing the node.
GPS Coldstart: The command is quite similar to the GPS Warmstart command. The
GPS receiver will skip its potentially stored ephemerides and download every available
data from the GPS satellites anew. It will take much longer to acquire a GPS location.
A GPS Coldstart is necessary if you changed the battery pack of your collar or if the
collar was inactive for a few weeks / months.
