3.8 GPS Offline Assist
Enables Sailfish to transfer GPS satellite data files over to the instrument to improve GPS lock
times. If enabled, Sailfish will download the latest GPS satellite position data once per day
(requires internet connection) and transfer the Offline Assist data to the instrument upon
connecting. The instrument will utilize the transferred satellite data during its next boot
sequence to reduce GPS lock time.
Sailfish will download satellite data forecasted for the next 20 days, however data forecasted
beyond approximately 5 days tends to be less accurate. For optimal performance, it is
recommended that Sailfish be provided an internet connection daily to ensure up to date GPS
information.
This setting is found in the Sailfish application settings.
