Chapter 6 - Use GPS About the Integrated GPS on Your Computer Intermec recommends that you use the GPS Intermediate Driver (GPSID) instead of directly accessing the GPS hardware. The GPSID is a Microsoft software component that interacts between applications and the GPS hardware. Using the GPSID allows Intermec support for Extended Ephemeris, which enhances GPS performance by: • reducing the amount of time it takes your GPS receiver to acquire a fix. • eliminating the need to obtain precise satellite data information from the GPS satellites. As a Microsoft software component, the GPSID also: • allows multiple applications to simultaneously access the GPS data stream. • provides access to GPS data without requiring applications to recognize and parse NMEA syntax. Use the GPSID Installed on the Computer To use the GPSID installed on your CN50, you need to configure the GPSID settings. 52 CN50 Mobile Computer for Windows Embedded Handheld 6.5 User Manual
