160 9  Usi ng  SP 510  C ompani on  Pr ogr ams  Wireless communication programs       Express GPS Conne ct SP510 is integrated with the latest GPS (Global Positioning System) technology to quickly compute positions in locations where GPS signals are barely detectable. Optimum GPS performance can be achieved with Express GPS Connect. This program operates by transferring GPS satellite data (ephemeris information) from the Internet to your device, where it is stored in memory. Express GPS Connect can get satellite data when your SP510 is connected to your PC or the Internet. This process occurs in the background, ensuring the GPS functions are ready to use at all times. To open Express GPS Connect: 1  Start a remote connection to the server using a GPRS, EDGE,WCDMA, HSPA connection. 2  Tap   > Settings  . 3  On the Connections tab, tap Express GPS Connect   .  Using Express GPS Connect  Use Express GPS Connect for the first time The first time you use your SP510 EDA, make sure your Express GPS Connect satellite data is current. For your first location fix, it is best to be outdoors under an open sky, with no tall buildings or other obstructions close by. It should take one to two minutes to compute the first position fix. After obtaining the first fix, Express GPS Connect operates at the optimum GPS performance level. If the data has expired, you should check your Express GPS Connect settings. Express GPS Connect position fix times •  The time it takes for Express GPS Connect to get a position fix varies with signal reception conditions. In open and nearly open sky conditions, the SP510 typically can get a position fix in just a few seconds. In blocked signal conditions Express GPS Connect will start in one minute or less if the GPS signals are sufficiently strong. Using your SP510 near a window gives it a better view to the sky and improves the chance of a successful position fix. •  Express GPS Connect starts searching for signals based on the most recent position fix. When traveling to a new location your SP510 will need extra time and more  open signal conditions to obtain  a location fix.  After  your  first fix in the new location full performance is restored. •  When traveling to a different time zone, you can change the time zone settings to tell Express GPS Connect you have traveled. Satellite reception •  GPS receivers work best when they have a direct line of sight to the satellites. For example, somebody turning on a GPS receiver in the middle of the Gobi Desert will obtain a position fix much sooner than a GPS user trying to get a position fix in the middle of Wall Street. The reason for this is simple: the Gobi Desert is a huge, flat expanse. It has no tall buildings and very few natural obstructions that could block GPS signals. GPS is ideal for an "open sky" environment like the Gobi Desert. •  In contrast, Wall Street represents an "urban canyon" environment, where tall buildings on both sides of the street block, reflect, and scatter incoming GPS signals. These conditions also apply when trying to use a GPS receiver indoors. A traditional GPS receiver simply may not be able to compute a position in an urban canyon or indoor environment. •  When you are getting your first GPS position fix with the SP510, try to do it in an environment that is as close to "open sky" as possible. The first position fix is crucial because it includes a calibration process that helps subsequent position fixes to be computed more rapidly. After getting the first position fix, you will be able to enjoy the benefits of the Express GPS Connect's high- sensitivity technology, which, when coupled with Express GPS Connect satellite data, allows you to get position fixes in places where traditional GPS receivers can't.
161 9  Usi ng  SP 510  C ompani on  Pr ogr ams  Wireless communication programs         How to improve GPS performance Your SP510 computes your position faster and more accurately, provided the following are adhered to: •  Always operate with current Express GPS Connect data. •  Configure your SP510 to automatically update Express GPS Connect data. •  Keep the SP510 away from other electronic devices that may emit radio waves (such as laptop computers and USB devices). •  Protect your SP510 from extreme temperature variations and violent shocks. •  If you are indoors and do not get a position after one minute, move to a window to give the SP510 a better view of the sky. •  If you have traveled more than 500 miles since you last used your SP510, or if the unit has been reset, the next position computation should be performed under open sky conditions, and extra time should be allowed. •  When traveling to a different time zone, be sure to change the SP510's time zone settings. •  If you have traveled more than 500 miles from the location where you last used the SP510’s GPS capability, the device will need extra time to compute a position fix. Here are a few ways to reduce the time to obtain a position in your new location. •  If traveling by plane, it is best to wait until you leave the terminal building before trying to obtain your first position fix. •  After the device obtained the first position fix in a new region, optimum Express GPS Connect performance is restored. •  If you have traveled to another time zone, you can speed up the GPS position computation by changing the time zone settings on your devic e. This causes Express GPS Connect to proceed immediately to a global satellite search. •  If you do not change the time zone, Express GPS Connect will initially search for satellites based on your previous position, increasing the time required to obtain a position fix. Express GPS Connect status icons The Express GPS Connect icon   located on the lower right corner of the Today screen indicates the expected level of GPS performance and the amount of time until the Express GPS Connect data expires.

209 11  User  S uppor t  Troubleshooting     Resetting your SP510 You may have to perform a reset if the device freezes (i.e., device no longer responds to the buttons on the screen). To perform a soft reset: A soft  reset  allows your  device  to get a  fresh start, similar to rebooting a  computer. This restarts your device  and  adjusts memory allocation. All  records and  entries are  retained after a soft reset. Unsaved data in open programs may in some cases be lost. 1  Remove the stylus from its holder.   2  Lightly press the tip of the stylus to the reset button located on the lower-left side of the device.   To perform a hard reset: A hard reset removes power to your device. This erases all records and entries, deletes all additional programs you have installed, and restores the device’s default factory settings. Never perform a hard reset unless a soft reset does not correct your problem. When you perform your next ActiveSync operation, you can restore any data that you previously synchronized to your computer or you can restore data that you backed up to a storage card.  NOTE:   When you perform a hard reset, the date and time settings are not retained. Formats, preferences, and other settings are restored to their default factory settings.   1  Hold down the Power  and Push to Talk buttons. 2  While holding down the Power and Push to Talk buttons, gently press the tip of the stylus to the Reset button. 3  Release the Reset button. The message “To clear all data in the memory, press Volume Up Button. To cancel the operation, press Volume Down Button.” appears.  4  Release the Power  and Push to Talk buttons. 5  Press the top key of the Volume button. You will be prompted to confirm the hard reset.
