Notice the smiley on the screen. When the GPS finds your position, the smiley becomes yellow, otherwise, it remains grey. Use the "'''aim'''" icon to prompt the GPS to get your location or refresh it. It is especially usefull when, to save battery, your device does not get your position continously, or when you are moving fast, for example when surveying from a bicycle. When using this icon, not only the GPS will read your position but will automatically center your posiiton in the map, but you can still move it if your current position is not that of the individual you are reporting. Note if the distance between your position (smiley) and that of the record (red marker) is greater than 3 km, you will be asked to confirm. See at the top left area the precision of your gps reading at any time. <br/>
