overheat. Once a rechargeable battery gets to be above 60 degrees Celsius, major
problems may arise and your units may no longer be functional.
2.2e Non-volatile Memory
The memory in your GPS unit is non-volatile. This means that it does not require
electrical current to retain the data in the memory. If your unit has data and the battery is
completely devoid of voltage, your data are safe. The unit will not be capable of remote
download while the battery is drained, but retrieving the unit and connecting it to a PC
via the USB cable will allow you to extract your data.
2.2f On/Off Switch
The VHF transmitter is controlled by a magnetically operated on/off switch. Remove the
transmitter magnet from the unit to activate the transmitter. To turn off the transmitter
tune the frequency into your VHF receiver and replace the magnet on the VHF portion of
the device. Be sure to listen to the receiver so that you can confirm that the transmitter is
off.
The GPS data logger is controlled by a magnetically operated on/off switch. Remove the
magnet to turn the GPS data logger on. Please note that removing the magnet from the
GPS will reset its time and it will begin attempting to acquire the time from a satellite
every 20 minutes until it succeeds. Connect the unit to a PC and click ‘Set time’ in Collar
SW to avoid this problem. If in the field when a magnet is removed, please have unit in
an open space where it may obtain satellite connection and set its time.
Color Coding and Magnet Placement
Most GPS devices built after June of 2010 include a color coordinated labeling system to
identify the correct location to replace the magnet when preparing the GPS for storage.
Note: As of May 2012, all backpack GPS units will receive a small white stripe
indicating the placement of the GPS antenna. This white stripe must be visible and
facing the sky when mounted on the animal or during testing to ensure receiving good
GPS data results.
