Utilities Guide for GPS Before using GPS .......................................2 Using the GPS .............................................4 This manual describes how to use the Optio WG-1 GPS camera’s GPS function and precautions when using it. Please read this manual before using the GPS function with this camera. 53209 H01-201102 Printed in Vietnam 㧙 2 㧙 Before using GPS GPS means Global Positioning System. It is a navigation system for measuring a position by receiving information from GPS satellites. The camera receives signals from some GPS satellites and calculates its present position and the time. This is called "positioning". Location of where an image is taken can be recorded The latitude and longitude of an image can be recorded. You can see the positions of pictures you take on a map by using the software provided. Saving log files The camera receives information from GPS satellites regularly and saves them as log files in KML format. The log files can be displayed using Google Earth or Google Maps, or an application that supports KML format. *Google, Google Earth and Google Maps are trademarks of Google Inc. Correct the clock using GPS data The camera corrects its clock automatically using received information from GPS satellites. • The GPS function is set to off as the default. To use it, set [GPS Setting] to O (On). • GPS satellites always move. Depending on the situation (location, time etc.), positioning may take longer or be impossible. • To use the GPS function, you must be in an open area, such as out of doors. • Positioning may be difficult or impossible in the following situations: - Under the water - Under the ground or indoors - In tunnels - Among high-rise buildings - Under elevated or near high-voltage electrical power lines About GPS Function of Optio WG-1 GPS Precautions for using GPS 㧙 3 㧙 - In the woods - Near mobile phones that use the 1.5 GHz band • When the GPS function is set to on, the camera performs positioning regularly even if it is turned off. Make sure to set [GPS Setting] to P (Off) (p.4) before turning off the camera when taking it where using electronic products is prohibited, such as hospitals or airplanes. • Positioning may take few minutes when using the GPS function for the first time, after not positioning for a long while, or after changing the battery. • The Geodetic system for this camera’s GPS function uses the World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS 84). • The location information on images cannot be erased. Make sure to set [GPS Setting] to P (Off) before taking pictures if you intend to put them on the internet without disclosing their location. • Using GPS is prohibited in some countries or regions. Contact appropriate embassy or travel agent before travelling with a GPS camera. • Do not carry the camera in a metal container if the positioning function is running. If the camera is covered with metal, the positioning function cannot work. • In the following situations, the camera cannot receive GPS data. It starts positioning again if it is removed from the following situations: - While recording an image or a movie - During a slideshow or while playing back a movie - While doing settings on the camera’s setting menu - When the alarm is ringing - When the camera is connected to a computer with a USB cable - When the camera is connected to AV equipment with an AV or HDMI cable - For a minute after changing the battery Hereby, HOYA CORPORATION, declares that this GPS Module Circuit Board/SG561_TB1 is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC. For a full version of the Declaration of Conformity (DoC), please refer to http://www.pentax.jp/english/. The CE Mark is a Directive conformity mark of the European Union. 㧙 4 㧙 Using the GPS You can record GPS data (latitude, longitude, altitude, or date etc.) onto images you take. To record them, set [GPS Setting] to O (On). Set [GPS Setting] to O (On) before setting [Logging] (p.5) and [Auto Time Synch.] (p.7) settings. 1 Press the 3 button in Q mode. [WSetting] menu appears. When you press the 3 button in A mode, press the four-way controller (5) once. 2 Use the four-way controller (23) to select [GPS]. 3 Press the four-way controller (5). [GPS] screen appears. 4 Use the four-way controller (23) to select [GPS Setting]. 5 Use the four-way controller (45) to switch between O (On) or P (Off). O(On) Records GPS information onto images P (Off) Does not record GPS information onto images 6 Press the 3 button twice. The camera returns to A mode or Q mode. Recording GPS data onto images • Only when is displayed on the capture mode screen, the GPS information can be recorded onto images. • If [GPS Setting] is set to O (On), the camera performs positioning regularly even if it is turned off, which reduces the battery life. MENU Logging GPS Setting GPS Auto Time Synch. Off Off GPS GPS GPS 㧙 5 㧙 1 Press the Q button after taking a picture. The camera enters the Q mode and the image appears on the display. 2 Press the 4 button until the GPS information is displayed. If the camera did not receive GPS data when the picture was taken, the values are displayed as “--“. The camera receives information from GPS satellites regularly and saves them as log files.
