SECTION 5
5.17 DTMF GPS Location Reporting
The NavTalk can transmit information about
your geographic location to another NavTalk or
other type device that can interpret DTMF tones
to plot your GPS position. You can also record a
GPS position from another NavTalk unit and
store that location in the GPS receiver data stor-
age. Refer to page 53 for Remote Command fea-
ture programming for querying a position report
using an active call.
To Report Your GPS Position:
1. Make certain the GPS receiver is operating and
collecting current data.
2. Connect to the reporting destination using the
Phone portion of the NavTalk.
3. When contact has been made (your call has been
answered) press and hold the SEND key for
more than one second to send your position via
DTMF tones... or press MENU select “Send Loca
tion” and then press ENTER.
To Receive a GPS Position Report:
1. Connect to the reporting caller using the Phone
portion of the NavTalk.
2. Press MENU and select “Query Location” from the
Dialing Page... or use the “Q” code in your dialing
string.
3. When the new position is received, a “Pop-Up”
message, “Do you want to save the PHONE way
point?” will appear. Press ENTER to confirm and
the new PHONE waypoint will be displayed.
NOTE: If you have already received a previous Position
Report and have not renamed it to save it, the incoming
Position Report will overwrite it. Be certain to rename and
save positions you want to keep for later use.
When you press ENTER to
confirm the PHONE way-
point it will be centered on
the Map Page. If you want to
navigate to the PHONE way-
point press the GOTO key,
cursor to the PHONE way-
point and press ENTER.
The phone number will
appear just behind the
