Leadtek GPS LR9553D Bluetooth Data logger & Receiver  ©2007 Leadtek Research Inc. All rights reserved. 23 10.   Appendix C: Safety Information  GPS is operated by the US government, which is solely responsible for the system’s accuracy and maintenance. Although Leadtek GPS LR9553D is a high precision electronic NAVAID, it may still become unsafe under the circumstances of misuse or inaccurate reading. Hence there is a certain degree of risks involving the use of these products. In order to reduce the risks, please read carefully all the documentation regarding technical specifications before using Leadtek GPS LR9553D. When in use, compare carefully the GPS results with all navigation information available, including that from other NAVAID, naked eye view, routes, etc. For safety reasons, it is necessary to solve all the problems before continuing to navigate.  Please DO NOT shake or clash this device, and please be aware that the dust-proof and water-proof are NOT guaranteed. The rechargeable battery is built inside, so please DO NOT detach it from the device arbitrarily. Meanwhile, please DO NOT use this device under the circumstances as below: 1.  In extremely hot, humid or cold environment, for example, under the direct sun or in rain   2.  Near the strong magnetic field 3.  In dusty weather
Leadtek GPS LR9553D Bluetooth Data logger & Receiver  ©2007 Leadtek Research Inc. All rights reserved. 24 11. Appendix D: GPS FAQ    Q. Do I have to pay extra charges for receiving GPS signals? A. No. Like listening to the radio, you only need to buy hardware (PC+GPS or PDA+GPS) to access the service. There is no extra charge.    Q. I bought a GPS device in Taiwan. Can I use it abroad?   A. Yes. GPS signals cover 98% of Earth’s surface (except the North and South Poles), so you can use it around the world.    Q. What datum does GPS devices use?   A. It uses WGS 84.    Q. What causes time lapses in navigation? My vehicle has arrived at a specific location, but why did not the vehicle indicator in the navigation system reach there at the same time?   A. There are several possible causes: 1.  Poor reception of GPS signals; 2.  The processing speed of CPU, RAM and memory card on the PDA; 3.  Time lapses are inevitable because GPS is updated once a second.    Q. What kind of navigation software can I use?   A. Generally you can use any navigation software featuring NMEA1083 as the data output format.  Q. My device has been successfully connected, but why can’t I see GPS signals in Navigator, and why does GPS fail to position? A. This may be caused by errors in COM port settings. The automatic GPS scan function of general electronic maps may lead to failure in GPS positioning. We suggest that you set the options manually.    Q. After using Navigator for positioning, why can’t I find the GPS antenna on the electronic map?   A. Navigator is an application developed by Leadtek to test GPS navigation. After launching Navigator, if you press x or go to the map without disconnecting the program, it will occupy the GPS antenna’s COM port. In that case, the map is unable to find the device. To solve this problem, disconnect Navigator before exiting the program.
Leadtek GPS LR9553D Bluetooth Data logger & Receiver  ©2007 Leadtek Research Inc. All rights reserved. 25 Q. Why can’t I use GPS at home or near the window?   A. GPS is for outdoor navigation only, so your device cannot receive GPS signals at home. Especially because it usually takes longer to navigate when you use GPS for the first time, make sure that you are in an outdoor place with good signal reception.  Q. When do I need to run Cold Start?   A. We suggest that you run Cold Start in the following situations: (1) it has been two weeks since your previous navigation; (2) the location you want to position is more than 500 km away from that of your previous navigation.    Q. What is the pin code for the Bluetooth GPS?   A. 0000.    Q. Do I need any driver to use Bluetooth GPS? A. No, you don’t.  Q. Could you tell me the specifications of your GPS product, such as size, chip version, initial booting time and so on?   A.
