    • Select GPS + GLONASS (Russian satellite system) for more accurate position information in situations with poor sky visibility.
    • Select GPS + BeiDou for more accurate position information in situations with poor sky visibility.
    • Select UltraTrac to record track points and sensor data less frequently (UltraTrac).

    NOTE: Using GPS and another satellite together can reduce battery life more quickly than using GPS only (GPS and Other Satellite Systems).

GPS and Other Satellite Systems

The GPS + GLONASS or GPS + BeiDou options offer increased performance in challenging environments and faster position acquisition than using GPS only. However, using GPS and another satellite system together can reduce battery life more quickly than using GPS only.

UltraTrac

The UltraTrac feature is a GPS setting that records track points and sensor data less frequently. Enabling the UltraTrac feature increases battery life but decreases the quality of recorded activities. You should use the UltraTrac feature for activities that demand longer battery life and for which frequent sensor data updates are less important.
