Introduction7■About the GPSThe GPS (Global Positioning System) is a worldwide satellite-based radio navigation system.The GPS module can calculate its location to an accuracy of 10 meters (33 feet). The accuracy depends on the number of GPS satellites to which the GPS module is in a line of sight. In optimal conditions, the accuracy may be within a few meters.If you stand still, GPS cannot detect which way you are facing because it determines your direction as you move.Almost all digital cartography is inaccurate and incomplete to some extent. Never rely solely on the cartography provided for use with this device.The use of the GPS module requires the module and your compatible device to be switched on. Do not switch on your device where it may cause interference or danger.The GPS is operated by the government of the United States, which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The accuracy of location data can be affected LD-4W_en1.fm Page 7 Tuesday, June 19, 2007 4:44 PM
Introduction8by adjustments to GPS satellites made by the United States government and is subject to change with the United States Department of Defense civil GPS policy and the Federal Radionavigation Plan. Accuracy can also be affected by poor satellite geometry. Availability and quality of GPS signals may be affected by your location, buildings, natural obstacles, and weather conditions. The GPS module should only be used outdoors to allow reception of GPS signals.GPS should only be used as a navigation aid. It should not be used for precise location measurement and you should never rely solely on location data from the GPS module for positioning or navigation.LD-4W_en1.fm Page 8 Tuesday, June 19, 2007 4:44 PM
