System
The System Page allows you to choose from four modes of GPS operation (Normal,
WAAS, Battery Save, Demo), to turn the Electronic Compass on or off, to turn the altimeter
auto-calibration on or off, to choose a battery type, to change the language display, includes
owner information, and to default back to the original factory settings.
GPS Mode
The GPS receiver is always ‘ON’ when it’s in ‘NORMAL’ mode. The normal mode is more
responsive to sudden turns or change of speed/acceleration.
When the Geko 301 is in ‘BATTERY SAVE’ mode, the GPS receiver turns on and off
alternatively to conserve power and the WAAS function is turned off.
WAAS stands for Wide Area Augmentation System. This setting is capable of producing
a more accurate position fi x. When enabled, this feature searches for a WAAS satellite near
your location and then receives data for correcting differentials in the GPS satellite signals.
The WAAS Satellite is number 33 or higher on the ‘Advanced Skyview’ Satellite Page. To
learn more about WAAS System, access the Federal Aviation Administration’s web site
(http://gps.faa.gov/).
The ‘ DEMO’ mode is designed for dealers to show the features and functions of the
Geko 301 to potential customers inside a closed building where satellite reception is not
possible. There is no navigation possible in ‘DEMO’ mode. If you select the ‘DEMO’ mode, a
window displays at the bottom of the screen asking you to verify that you want to turn the
GPS off (the unit will stop tracking satellites, but not power off).
The SYSTEM Page allows you to change the GPS Mode, turn
compass on and off, turn auto calculate altimeter on or off,
change battery type, the language, and owner information.
A ‘BATTERY LOW’ message
displays at the bottom of every
page when there are approxi-
mately ten minutes of battery
life left (when using Alkaline
batteries).
