3 - 28 Omnii Hand-Held with Windows CE 6.0 User Manual
Power
This tab allows you to dictate how the GPS module behaves. The GPS Power drop-down menu is used to
control when the GPS is powered on and off.
•
Off – the GPS module is left off, always.
•
Always on – the GPS module is powered on at all times regardless of the power state of the hand-held
(suspend).
•
On, and off in suspend – the GPS module is powered on, but if the Omnii is in suspend mode, the GPS
module is turned off.
Profiles
Tapping on the GPS Profile Selection drop-down menu allows you to choose an appropriate profile: Default,
Automotive or Pedestrian.
•
Default profile is a good general profile suitable for most uses.
•
Automotive profile is designed for in-vehicle use, providing quick location updates as the vehicle moves.
When the GPS module is set to this profile and the vehicle enters an area such as a tunnel where satellite
coverage is interrupted, it will attempt to predict the vehicle position.
•
Pedestrian profile is designed for those using the GPS module while walking. It takes into account the
slower pace of the pedestrian when mapping the location of the user. When the GPS module is set to this
profile and the operator moves into an area where satellite coverage is interrupted, the GPS module will
not attempt to predict the operator's movement.
