APPENDIX 1: GPS Management
When the power is switched on, the GPS carries out a "cold" start-up. The initial phase lasting a maximum of 8 minutes, may appear long
but is essential so that the GPS module can acquire and update its almanac and ephemeris data.
Once the GPS has acquired its data it sleeps in order to optimise energy consumption. Subsequently, the GPS wakes up for 14s every
minute to refresh its position. If the GPS acquires sufficient satellite data during its initial phase, it should be able to resynchronise within
these 14s. However, depending on the conditions of use, this is not always the case. It may be therefore, that certain frames contain no GPS
coordinates.
IMPORTANT:
When the GPS has not been used for a period of time (several days), or when it has been taken switched off over long distances (from one
town to another or from one country to another), the satellite data the GPS previously acquired will be completely wrong. In this case, the
GPS will have difficulty in synchronising. It will not be abnormal therefore for the GPS to take several minutes (>5 min) to resynchronise
during the initial phase.
It is also possible to disable the GPS if this feature is not required.
