UseGPSCompass
The Active 20 has an electronic compass (good
when stationary) and a GPS compass (good when
in motion), and switches between the two at a
preset speed. In this setting you are able to select
the speed at which the GPS compass overrides
the electronic compass. The GPS compass is more
accurate the faster you go.

mph.

SatelliteConstellations
GPS,GLONASS,GALILEO
This is the default & recommended setting for best
all-round performance, allowing the GPS unit to
access all the major global satellite networks.
GPSOnly
Specifiaclly some users may want to use only GPS
(American) satellites for thier global navigation. In
this mode the GPS module uses slightly less power,
but occasionally the GPS location may be worse
under certain circumstances than using GPS,
GLONASS & GALILEO.
TestMode(origin)
In this mode a simulated GPS signal is given to the
unit and it starts a pseudo track from the Origin (lat
0, Long 0). In certain circumstances this is used for
software development & testing. PleaseNote: this
mode is not suitable for outdoor activity navigation.
TestMode(UK)
In this mode a simulated GPS signal is given to the
unit and it starts a pseudo track from a position in
the West of England. In certain circumstances this
is used for software development & testing. Please
Note: this mode is not suitable for outdoor activity
navigation.
DemoMode
This mode is typically used by retailers wishing to
have the unit periodically reset to defaul settings
and display a moving map on the screen. Best used
with a relevant MapCard fitted. Please Note: this
mode is not suitable for outdoor activity navigation.
Off
In this mode the GPS signal is turned Off.
