- Off
-
Disables satellite systems for the activity.
- Use Default
-

- GPS Only
-
Enables the GPS satellite system.
- GPS + GLONASS
-
Enables the GPS and GLONASS satellite systems for more accurate position information in situations with poor sky visibility. Using GPS and another satellite system together can reduce battery life more quickly than using GPS only.
- GPS + GALILEO
-
Enables the GPS and GALILEO satellite systems for more accurate position information in situations with poor sky visibility. Using GPS and another satellite system together can reduce battery life more quickly than using GPS only.
- UltraTrac
-
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.
