Mark Waypoint
!
Using this feature you can mark interesting points and send them to the back-office for display.
Choosing ‘Mark Waypoint’ will allow you to choose the type of waypoint, and the system will then
take a GPS fix and transmit the waypoint to the back-office.
!
Custom Waypoint Lists
!
It is possible to customize the waypoint type list on your device, to better suit your own personal
needs. Facilities and instructions to do this can be found in the ‘Core’ management system.
!
Note: Waypoints are only available on the Professional or Corporate versions of our devices, and will only
work in conjunction with the ‘Core’ management system.
!
Advanced Menu
!
The advanced menu will have a number of features, dependent on your device model. These features
are for advanced use only, and should only be adjusted under instruction from a member of support
staff or following specific instructions. We will not be held responsible for any additional charges
incurred or problems caused if you adjust these settings without advisement.
!
A few of the more important options in this menu are:
!
PC Connect
!
This feature is used to connect your device to your PC/Mac via USB. The unit will appear as a USB
drive, and you can then transfer firmware updates or configuration files to the unit. Do not use this
without following instructions.
!
GPS Hot
!
In some situations you may want to immediately mark a position with a manual report whilst
travelling at speed. In this sort of situation you want to be able to rely on an instant GPS fix when you
fire a manual report.
!
With GPS Hot turned ON, this means GPS is continually keeping track of your position so there is no
delay between the time you fire a manual report and the time the position is marked. This mode will
use power more quickly than other tracking modes, since GPS is kept on all of the time.
!
Mail Checking
!
This setting can be used to force the RockSTAR to check for new messages every X minutes. It is set
by default to Off.
!
WARNING: Be aware, inbox checking uses up credits just like normal position reports. A normal
tracking report also checks for new messages, so you DO NOT need both Tracking and Inbox
Checking set to ON. You will use up twice as much credit if you have both items turned on.
