GPS
GPS (Global Positioning System) is a system for receiving highly accurate position
information from satellites in order to check the current position on the earth.
GPS signal reception
•
It may take a few minutes after turning on the Air GPS for a GPS signal to be
acquired.
•
Movement is not recommended while the Air GPS is searching for a GPS signal.
Wait until a signal is received before riding. Moving while the Air GPS searches for a
GPS signal may result in more time being required to receive a GPS signal.
•
GPS signal reception is best under open sky with good visibility of the satellite.
Locations where GPS signals cannot be received
A GPS signal may not be available in the following locations and situations, resulting
in measurement being interrupted and prevent proper measurements from being
acquired.
•
In a tunnel, underground, in a building, between high-rise buildings, under elevated
roads, in an arcade, etc.
•
In bad weather (snow, rain, etc.)
•
Near high-voltage power lines or cellular relay stations
•
With the Air GPS screen not facing toward the sky
* Calculating speed using a GPS signal may provide measurement results that vary
slightly from the actual values.
Use with smartphone
The Cateye Cycling™ smartphone app can be used to change Air GPS settings, view or
delete trip data saved on the Air GPS, and import trip data from the Air GPS.
* Downloading and using the application incurs communication fees. A Wi-Fi connection
is recommended.
