What altimeter capabilities will the gps receiver and ipod application provide and what is required to calibrate for correct elevation?

Hey Anne,To high tech. for me to answer that, but if you email support@emprum.com I'm sure they can answer that.

The accuracy of the unit is 2.5m 2D rms, altitude is a little bit less accurate, typically around 3-5 meters. It will depend on the GPS signal quality and DOP numbers. You can use the UltiMate GPS app to determine the accuracy: press on the "i" button and it will come up with a screen that has DOP numbers and the accuracy that goes with them.Roger Koumans, Emprum LLC

This is just the GPS signal receiver, not a complete GPS unit. It works well, but specific features such as altimeter readings are going to depend on which iPod app you use. Many people end up using several apps, depending on need. I use Gaia w/ USGS topo maps loaded, which of course give altitude readings with the topo lines. The basic app that comes with the UltiMate gives speed and altitude readings, although I have no way of knowing how accurate they are.

I don't have a GPS adaptor on my system. However, the Pioneer web site does list the same GPS unit (AVIC-U220) for both my system (AHV-P2300DVD) and the one you are asking about (AVH-P2400BT). Hope this helps!

GPS receiver for my Ipad so I can use Garmin Maps without using and data from my carrier. Also when I traveling for business (real Estate) I carry it with me and create tracks that I can download for my tax files as support for auto business use. It works great!

I was going to buy this camera mainly because of GPS feature. Any update on GPS signal?

I just brought that GPS (eTrex Legend Cx) also how much memory does the stock 32mb give in terms of mapping area? Also, do you know if the mapping of the topo and North America V7 work jointly?

The 305 supports auxilary devices with the ANT+ interface. The heart rate monitor is one such device. Other supported ANT+ interface devices are a cadence meter for biking and a foot pod for running (allows speed and distance to be calculated without GPS reception, or on a tread mill).

Using the latest ipilot with GPS. The ipilot is slow to update course corrections therefore you are off course as much as 30 feet!!!

You might want to check out Ascent from Montbello Software. Mac native and runs circles around Garmin Training Center for the 205/305. I'm using it for my 405, but only after exporting a file in windows from GTC and importing it into Ascent.

I don't know about the TomTom, but the Garmin 255W will give you altitude information if you touch the vehicle icon on the map screen. This is also how to bookmark your location and see your longitude/latitude coordinates.

Any app that requires GPS will work. No problem using it with the native Maps app or Google Maps. Pls note that I had problems with this particular device and replaced it with the Dual Electronics XGPS 150 which works well.

I have an older version but believe the device works the same. All the AMOD does is create a GPS tracking log that captures coordinates and altitude on a regular basis that you determine, e.g., every 5 seconds. The you need software, either that provided by AMOD or another source, to correlate the AMOD data to the image data from your camera. I use HoudahGeo software for my Mac which will tag any kind of image with GPS data which I then load into Lightroom.

I haven't used the altimeter readings too often, but checking against the topo map of where I live, it seemed to be within 20 feet without calibration, and within 10 after calibration (for that day)

there are several different models. the premium model has everything including an altimeter. I think mine has a compass that shows a heading to a waypoint, but we are in Mexico right now and I don't have it with me.

i am using meters fromwww.simmeters.com. they have the full set of a10c meters available on their webstore. i will be buying the wet compass from simkits.com

Hi, If you have an Ipod Nano you can try the very cheap, in comparison with GPS, Nike+ Sportkit. Once you calibrate it, it is very accurate. All my runs (same route) about 8km only vary on +/- 100m. Hope that helps a little bit.

I believe this model can show altitude but you will have to refer to the start up guide that comes with the unit to download the manual. The unit is very easy to operate. You should not have any problem learning the functions since you have owned a Garmin.

Hello. No, for Navigation you will need Pioneer's add-on Navigation unit. Thank you.
