Device sensorsGPS signal reception (GPS positioning)GPS positioningGPS positioning is the process by which the device receives a GPS signal and timing information to measureroutes, distance, pace, and other information.To ensure accuracy of measurements, use the device under the following conditions in areas of good GPS signalreception.Scenarios in which GPS positioning is used❏GPS measuring (Run or Walk measurements)❏Time synchronization (SETTINGSSet by GPS, SystemUpdate Time)Good signal reception conditionsLocations where you cannot receive signals Locations that are dicult to receive signalsInside rooms orbuildings, orundergroundIn tunnels Under water Locations withelectronicinterference, suchas constructionssites and heavytracNear high-voltagewires or televisiontowers, overheadelectric wires fortrains, and roadswith skyscrapersOn waterUsing the device for the rst timeBefore using the device for the rst time aer purchase, wait at least 15 minutes aer initial GPS positioningoutdoors with no obstructions overhead while the device displays the Measurement screen. is improvesmeasurement accuracy.J-57 User ManualSetup26

The Measurement screen appears after GPS locating. Wait 15 minutesNote❏Refer to the following page for more information on GPS positioning.U “Measurement preparation (selecting the Activity Type)” on page 33❏is process normally only needs to be performed once.❏Perform this process if the device has not been used for several months.Notee basic conguration of the GPS system is 24 satellites orbiting the Earth at an altitude of 20,000 km with at least foursatellites traveling in six dierent orbits. e GPS receiver acquires data from four satellites and calculates the latitude,longitude, altitude, and time. You can start measuring once the GPS positioning has been performed and thisinformation has been received. You can receive more detailed GPS navigation data (satellite orbital information) if youwait 15 minutes aer initial GPS signal acquisition, which improves measuring accuracy.However, note that GPS positioning is not 100% accurate or reliable at all times even with the more detailed GPS databecause of atmospheric conditions and the usage environment.NoteAGPS - Reducing the GPS Positioning TimeYou can reduce the GPS signal acquisition time by connecting the device with a smartphone and then retrieving GPSsatellite information from a network server.
