Contingut del paquet

• iGS50E GPS Bike Computer x 1
• Cable micro USB x 1
• Muntatge estàndard de bicicleta x 1
• Manual d'usuari x 1

Configuració

1. Muntatge del dispositiu

Attach the standard bike mount to your bicycle's handlebars. Ensure it is securely fastened. The iGS50E device can then be twisted onto the mount until it clicks into place.

Carregant

Charge the device using the provided Micro USB cable. The battery capacity is 1200mAH, offering approximately 40 hours of endurance on a full charge. A battery indicator on the screen will show the current charge level.

Neteja

Netegeu el dispositiu amb un suau, damp drap. Eviteu utilitzar productes químics agressius o materials abrasius que puguin danyar la pantalla o el casing.

Resolució de problemes

• Slow GPS Acquisition: Assegureu-vos que esteu en una zona oberta a l'aire lliure amb una vista clara view of the sky. Initial GPS lock may take longer. If acquisition remains slow, try restarting the device.

  • Assegureu-vos que el Bluetooth estigui habilitat al vostre telèfon intel·ligent.
  • Verify the iGPSPORT app is installed and updated.
  • Try restarting both the iGS50E and your smartphone.
  • If data synchronization fails, try removing and re-pairing the device within the app.
• Inaccurate Data Readings (Altitude/Gradient): GPS-based altitude and gradient can sometimes be affected by environmental factors like dense tree cover or tall buildings. For optimal accuracy, ensure clear line of sight to satellites.
• El dispositiu no respon: If the device becomes unresponsive, perform a forced shutdown by pressing and holding the power button for 10 seconds. Then, restart the device.
