The Address List
178 Manpack Transceiver 2110 series Reference Manual
Storing GPS information in the Address List
You can store GPS information in the Address List for the position of your station,
remote stations, or other specific locations. You can receive this information via a call,
then save it to the Address List, or you can enter your position information into an entry
in the Address List manually. When you access this entry in the Address List, the
distance and bearing to the location is displayed if your transceiver holds valid GPS
information for its own position.
Often, fixed base stations do not have a GPS receiver fitted, as the position is static. If
you know the GPS position of your fixed station, you can create a special entry in the
Address List to store the information. This provides a reference point for automatic
distance and bearing calculations to remote stations and specific locations.
Storing your GPS information in a transceiver
If your fixed base station does not have a GPS receiver, a special entry can be created in
the Address List (called My GPS) to store your position information if Option GPS
Enable is installed. The transceiver uses this information to provide distance and bearing
readings to any GPS locations stored in the Address List or either of the call logs. To
store GPS information in the Address List you may:
• save a position sent to you from a mobile station that is temporarily located at your
fixed station
• create an entry in the Address List, then type in the location
Saving your GPS information from a call log
To save your GPS information to the Address List:
1 Make a Send Position call from a mobile station (with an enabled GPS receiver) that
is located at your fixed station.
1 Press # twice to go to the Calls In Log at your fixed station.
1 Go to the entry containing the information from the Send Position call that you
received above.
1 Hold to open the List Manager.
1 Scroll to Save to Address, then press .
The transceiver suggests a name for the entry, based on the caller address.
NOTE
You can store GPS information in the Address List if Option GPS Enable
is installed.
NOTE
Automatic distance and bearing calculations only occur when Option GPS
Enable is installed.
