Enhancing Gps Performance - Motorola MTM800 Bedienungsanleitung

• When your GPS antenna is covered (for example, by your
hand or other object) or facing the ground
• In temperature extremes outside the operating limits of
your terminal
Even where location information can be calculated in such
situations, it may take much longer to do so. Therefore, in
any emergency call, always report the location to your
dispatcher.
Furthermore, please note that even where adequate signals
from multiple satellites are available, your GPS feature will
only provide an approximate location, often within 20 - 100
meters from your actual location.

Enhancing GPS Performance

Sometimes the GPS feature of your terminal may be unable
to complete a location calculation successfully. You will see a
message indicating that your terminal cannot see enough
visible satellites.
To maximize the ability of your terminal to determine a
location fix please note the following guidelines:
• The GPS feature works best where there is nothing
between your terminal and a large amount of open sky. If
possible, go outside, away from tall buildings and foliage.
• Position your vehicle to enhance reception, giving the
antenna clear access to satellite signals. Signals from
GPS satellites are transmitted to your GPS antenna, which
is in your terminal antenna. Do not cover the antenna area
with your fingers or anything else.
• Stay in network coverage. Depending on who your service
provider is, the network will provide your terminal with
information that helps determine your location more
quickly and accurately.
