Before using the NAVI-XS, make sure to prepare the following items:

GPS software is properly installed on your Bluetooth™-enabled
device (PC, laptop, Pocked PC, or other handheld devices).
♦
The Bluetooth™ GPS Receiver is fully powered (i.e. internal batteries
are full charged) and operational.

run smoothly with the GPS Mapping software.
5.1 Installation instructions
In the delivery package the NiMH 1000 mA/h (2 x 1.2 V) batteries for NAVI-XS are
separately packed, just take them out from the package, open the cover cap on
the underside of the NAVI-XS and insert both batteries in it.
Note,
insert the batteries
with the correct polarity
!
Check the polarity marks on the battery (positive [+] and
negative [-]) before mounting the batteries in the device. Insert the batteries as
shown on the edges of the housing. Finally, close the cover cap. In order to
recharge the batteries use one of the aforementioned adapters. After the batteries
are fully charged, place your Falcom NAVI-XS in such a location where it is facing
toward the sky (e.g. vehicle’s dashboard). The internal GPS antenna is mounted on
the topside of NAVI-XS unit. Thereafter, turn it on by pressing the
ON-button
for longer
two seconds until a short beep is heard. (To turn it off again, press the
OFF-button
for
longer than two seconds until a long beep is heard.) The mounting location of the
NAVI-XS is crucial for its optimal performance. The Bluetooth™ connection between
the Falcom NAVI-XS receiver and your mobile phone/PDA/PC or laptop can now be
established. See table 4, for more information about the LEDs.
Note:
For best results, the NAVI-XS should also perform a GPS fix now. The GPS
indicator will light steadily
when a valid GPS fix is obtained. If there is
trouble during acquire a GPS fix, replace the location of NAVI-XS or
restart it again.
Please, refer to the corresponding chapter as far as the Bluetooth™ connection is
concerned.
