TOC 3 Thank you for purchasing the Globalsat GH-208 GPS Training Watch! Let’s learn more about this exciting product. About GPS GPS stands for Global Positioning System. For 3D fix, we need at least 4 satellites. Normally the accuracy of GPS under open sky that means no tall building and clear sky is within 10 meters per second. Therefore, if the device shift 10 meter at that second, the device may show 36 Km/h instant speeds. Nowadays, the GPS consumer product has built in adjust algorithm and assisted method to extend capability of GPS. About 3ATM Water Resistance Suitable for daily use. Splash/rain resistant. NOT suitable for showering, bathing, swimming, snorkeling, water related work and fishing. REMARK: NOT SUITABLE FOR DIVING. About IPX7 Water Resistance Suitable for indoor/outdoor use in the presence of rain, snow or brief splashes of water. NOT suitable for any immersion of more than 1 meter, regardless of duration of immersion, or any immersion of more than 30 minutes, regardless of depth of immersion.
