102.2 Getting Started Please follow the procedure step by step. Step 1 Charging Your Battery To charge your 860 PRO, you have to plug your USB cable into the power source. Charging time is about 3~4 hours and you can charge from PC/ Notebook’s USB HOST or from cigarette-lighter in car. For the 1st time you use the 860 PRO, please charge battery until it is full (the green LED blinks). The LED that represents the battery is the left-most battery icon (shown in below). - If the LED is red, that means battery power is critically low. Charge immediately. - If the LED is green, that means battery is charging now. - If the no LED light indicate that means battery is fully charged.
11 Step 2 Turning on the power switch (NAV/ LOG) Power off Navigation Data record Difference between NAV and LOG: NAV Working as a Bluetooth GPS receiver. LOG Both of navigation and logging functions are enabled. Step 3 Connecting your handheld device with 860 PRO Please refer to the user manual of PDA to enable the Bluetooth connectivity. If the connection between your device and 860 PRO is successful, the blue LED of 860 PRO will be blinking. Below, we provide a common procedure of software installation to set up your PDA. (For other PDA, the steps may be different. Bluetooth Manager is a popular program used on Bluetooth device.)
12 --> Start -> Bluetooth Manager New 1. Open “Bluetooth Manager” on your pocket pc, and establish a new connection. --> Explore A Bluetooth device ->Next Tap 860PRO
132. Explore a Bluetooth device, and find the “860PRO” Passkey 0000 (if your PDA asks for the passkey) 3. (Optional) --> Select SPP slave->Next Finish
144. Connect to Serial Port Profile (SPP) Slave --> Tap and Hold 860PRO SPP slave, Connect Done 5. Finish Bluetooth Manager Setup Step 4 Loading your GPS mapping or routing software You should have mapping software on your PDA/ Smartphone/ laptop or you need to install it before using the 860 PRO for navigation. Step 5 Starting the application Select the correct COM port & baud rate within the application. Note: The Bluetooth device in most of the applications has an “auto-detect” feature so that you do not need to select the Baud Rate.
152.3 Helpful Tips - It’s better to turn off the 860 PRO when you don’t use it, or the serial Flash's life can’t last long. - Some vehicles having heavy metallic sun protecting coating on windshields may affect GPS signal receptions - Driving in and around high buildings may affect GPS signal receptions. - Driving in tunnels or indoor park may affect signal receptions. - In general, any GPS receiver performs best in open space where it can see clean sky. Also weather will affect GPS reception – rain & snow contribute to worse sensitivity. - Low battery of a PDA or of an 860 PRO may affect signal receptions. - Please check the correct “COM” and “Baudrate” of your PDA. - 860 PRO output data updates every second, therefore the actual position and the position shown in your map may have slight time delay. This may happen when you drive at higher speed or make a turn around a corner. - Note that 860 PRO may not work indoors where it can not see the sky. - For the 1st time you use the 860 PRO, it will take 1 to 3 minutes to obtain the satellite constellation information and fix your position, this is called “Cold Start”. If you replace the battery, 860 PRO will do Cold Start again. - If your 860 PRO can’t fix your position for more than 20 minutes, we suggest you change to another spot with open space and then try again.
