submenu, use the Left and Right arrows until you reach the item Refresh Positioning and press
Confirm.

3.2.2 Updating GPS Satellite Positions
Although the StellarTrek automatically and regularly updates satellite positions for up to three days,
it is possible to update the satellites’ ephemeris information manually for an optimal GPS accuracy
for up to two weeks.
To update manually the GPS satellite position, you need to make sure you are connected to a Wi-
Fi network. Go to the Settings menu by pressing and holding the Down arrow. Then, use the Left
and Right arrows until you reach the item System and press Confirm. In the System submenu,
use the Left and Right arrows until you reach the item Update GPS satellite positions and press
Confirm.
Upon selecting this option, the device will prompt “Update successful” when done. Note that you
may have to wait up to 2 minutes for the GPS positions to be updated on your StellarTrek.
3.3 Carrying the StellarTrek
For your safety, you should not use headphones when walking on the street.
In areas with heavy traffic or where the ambient noise makes it difficult to hear the internal speaker,
it is recommended to stop walking and use the headphones to listen to a specific instruction.
It is recommended to use the provided lanyard and maintain the device in the belt clip when carrying
the StellarTrek to prevent accidental drops.
3.4 Explore
By default, the StellarTrek is in Explore mode, meaning that it is designed to explore your outdoor
environment. Whether you are walking on a street or in an open area (such as a park or a parking
lot) or even traveling by vehicle, the GPS tool will provide real-time information regarding your
position and the direction in which you are heading.
Note that from anywhere on the device, you can always come back to Explore by pressing and
holding the Back button.
Information provided while exploring around:
Whether you are walking or traveling by vehicle, the StellarTrek will provide real-time information.
Switching from pedestrian to motorized travel is done automatically by evaluating the speed of
travel. As the speed of motorized travel does not allow the extent of spoken detail possible when
walking, the StellarTrek will adjust verbosity and mapping frequency to your mode of travel.
Note : You can force the StellarTrek to use the pedestrian or motorized mode in the travel
mode menu by pressing and holding the left arrow. Choose the desired mode with left and
right arrows and press confirm to select It.
The choice made in this menu will stay until you restart the device, after that the automatic
mode will be reset.
