6.2. Alarm
The alarm function allows the person taking the measurements to define
a warning level. When that level is exceeded, the device will give an audible
warning. The alarm will only sound if the alarm function has been activated on
the configuration screen and the sound is switched on.
6.3. GPS
The SMP2 has a built-in state-of-the-art GPS that allows it to display and
memorize the position of the device when taking measurements. The
incorporation of ublox functions makes the receiver highly sensitive and
accurate, allowing exact positioning even in areas with poor satellite visibility.
The GPS is enabled and disabled through the configuration menu as explained
in section 5.6.
If the position obtained by the GPS is invalid, the main screen displays the
message “Searching”. If the position obtained by the receiver is valid, the
latitude and longitude are shown on the screen with a colour indicator of the
quality of the position.
Note: Enabling the GPS increases power consumption and reduces autonomy. It is
important to keep it disabled when not in use, to avoid unnecessary drain on the battery.
