Expression of degree GPS-Status displays:
Antenna symbol flashes - search for satellites.
"GPS fixed" appears on the display, the GPS watch has found a 2D position (i.e.
the height is still missing).
If this symbol appears, enough satellites have been found, so that the GPS watch can determine a 3D position (with height).
If satellites have been lost and no position can be determined, "GPS lost" will appear on the display, until a button is pressed.
Switch off GPS manually
To turn off the search for satellites manually
,
hold the "VIEW" button in the training mode "GPS OFF" appears.Start/stop training
Press the "ST./STP." button in the GPS training mode to start or stop the training. In this way, the search for a GPS signal and the heart rate measurement will be automatically activated (if this has not already been done manually beforehand).
ATTENTION: After stopping your training with the "ST./STP." button, you can save it by keeping the "LAP/RESET" button pushed. "Hold to Save" and "Done" is displayed.
Note: GPS reception remains active!
Record lap times
Press the "LAP/RESET" button during training to record a lap time. The maximum number of lap times for each training is 99.
Activate heart rate measurement
Wear the chest strap as described under point 2.4 "chest strap". Select the menu point "HRM" "On/off" in adjust- ment mode, set it to "on" The heart rate measurement will be activated.
Coupling chest strap and GPS watch
Each chest strap has its own ID, and was coupled with the GPS watch in the factory, in order to avoid defects. If you replace the GPS watch or the chest strap, they must be re- coupled. Select the menu point "HRM" "On/off" "HRM off" in the adjustment mode.
Select the menu point "HRM" "Pairing" in the adjustment mode.

When the pairing is successfully completed, the notification "Done!" will appear.
If the notification "Failed!" appears, then the coupling has not worked. Try again, by proceeding as described above.
After the coupling, switch the HRM function back on.
4.2.2 General about GPS reception
Perfect satellite signal reception can only be guaranteed in clear weather conditions (clear sky) and suitable reception area - open area with clear view of the sky.
Cold start – warm start
A cold start is when the GPS watch is being used for the first time. After that there is only the warm start, and in an optimum case this takes approx. 10 seconds.
A-GPS:
The GPS watch is equipped with an A-GPS function, which can be used to speed up the GPS signal reception, particularly during inclement weather conditions. To use this function, please download the A-GPS data as described below.
Connect the watch to the computer using the USB cable. In the menu bar of the GPS Master, click on data transfer and then on A-GPS. The current A-GPS data will be trans- ferred to the watch.
4.2.3 GPS-Navigation mode
Press the "MODE" button until you are in the GPS navigation mode. This can be seen through the following display:
Paths and waypoints
10 paths can be saved in the GPS watch. Only one path can be worked on at once. Each path can consist of a maximum of 99 waypoints. Waypoints within a path can be linked together and form a route, but could also be just individual waypoints.
There are two sub functions in the GPS navigation mode. Using the "VIEW" button you can change between them:
