20. Tips
For the best performance in acquiring a
satellite lock: Wait until a lock is established
before inserting a map card. The GPS should
be under open skies, immobile and held
upright. When a lock has been acquired, the
top left signal icon will change from a red ‘x’
to green or blue crescents, depending on the
signal. (Satellite lock times vary). The Active
12 can acquire a lock on the move, e.g. whilst
driving. However, this can cause a delay in
the time to get a lock.
• Calibrate compass before use: Before you
use the Active 12 compass, make sure you
have calibrated it rst by going to Main Menu
> Settings > Calibrate Compass (section
7.13).
To prevent the screen switching from
GPS MAP to PLANNING: Either lock the
screen (section 3.02), or allow it to go into the
powersave screen off mode before stowing
it away.
To maximize battery life: Refer to section
3.00 for tips on how to conserve battery
power. If you want to carry out route
planning on your Active 12, connect it to your
computer as a good way to get more out of
your batteries.
• Take out the batteries when not using
the Active 12: Even when switched off the
unit draws some power, which over time can
drain the batteries.
• Recording your trip log: Remember to use
the Stop (data logging) button (section 6.03)
if you take a break and want to maintain a
log of all trip statistics. Don’t forget to press
Start once you are ready to go again. If you
remain stationary for a longer period of time
without pausing (Stop), the data logging/trip
statistics will be inaccurate.
Make a back-up le copy of any maps
that you purchase: A back-up may be done
either using an SD card reader or SD card
slot on your computer. If your map card data
is corrupted or erased, copy the le back
onto the original card. Data transferred to a
different card will not be usable.
Use a GoTo point as a rangender: Set a
GoTo point on your destination to calculate
the straight line distance from your current
location to the GoTo point (section 19.00).
• Use SatSYNC to manage les: Upload/
download routes and OOIs from your
computer to your unit by using our free
SatSYNC software (download available
from our website). You can transfer all sorts
of GPS data les from your computer to
your Active 12, e.g. .map, .kml, gpx, .loc,
geocaching les, tab delimited text les etc.
(Refer to section 3.07 or the SatSYNC user
guide for more information).
To set the time on your unit: Go to MAIN
MENU > Settings > Time offset and move
the joystick to select the appropriate hour
differential (+/- GMT).
• To quickly setup a route on your unit:
Go to GPS MAP > POSITION INFO via
centre press > Create New Route. Plot in
your waypoints using the directional joystick
and press Done.
• To quickly setup a POI on your unit:
Go to GPS MAP or PLANNING > POSITION
INFO via centre press > Add POI. Name
the POI using the keypad and press Done.
Select an icon from the POI icon selection
screen and press Done.
