6. Troubleshooting
Bluetooth is unable to connect
A) Check if the GPS Bluetooth indicator is flashing normally. That is, flash one per
each three second means the product is under standby mode; flash once per
second means Bluetooth has been online already.
B) Check if energy level is sufficient. If red LED is lid up, then the battery level is
insufficient, please recharge it until the red indicator is off (recharge is complete).
GPS cannot be positioned
A) Check if GPS indicator operates normally or not. If the indicator is constantly lid
up, it means that GPS is in operation; if the indicator is flashing, it means GPS is
positioned already.
B) If GPS cannot be positioned for long, apply GPS info software to make a Cold
Start first, and then move to an open space performing the positioning task.
Check if power level is sufficient. If the red LED lights up, it means the power is
insufficient, please recharge it until the red indicator is off (recharge is complete).
