Inappropriate locations for acquiring GPS data
You may not record a GPS log at locations or in situations where the radio signals from
GPS satellites do not reach the GPS unit. For example,
• In tunnels, indoors, or under the shade of buildings.
• Between tall buildings or at narrow streets surrounded by buildings.
• In underground locations, locations surrounded by dense trees, or under an elevated
bridge.
• In locations where magnetic fields are generated, such as near high voltage cables.
• Near devices that generate radio signals of the same frequency band as those of the
GPS unit, near 1.5 GHz band mobile telephones, etc.
• You are not supposed to turn the GPS unit on and off when you are about to press the shutter on
your camera. On the contrary, keep the power of the GPS unit turned on while you carry the GPS
unit together with the camera, and while you record images. Unless the GPS unit is triangulating
when you record images, the GPS unit does not record GPS logs to be matched with the images.
• When the GPS unit is left with the power on, the GPS unit enters [GPS] mode and starts
triangulating automatically. This may result in creation of an unexpected GPS log.
• You can delete unnecessary GPS logs, using GPS Image Tracker, after importing them to the
computer. Refer to the GPS Image Tracker Help for information on deleting a GPS log.
• If several GPS logs are created due to turning the GPS unit on/off, etc., you can merge them using
GPS Image Tracker, after importing them to the computer. Note that you cannot divide merged
GPS logs. Refer to the GPS Image Tracker Help for information on merging GPS logs.
x Turning off the GPS unit
Hold the 1 (power) button down.
