Users may record their tracks, silently provide others with information using the text
messaging system, and use the device as a compass. In the latter, the user does not have
to be moving.
As each unit receives real time GPS locations for other units, one may select another user
and use this device to plot a course to the area of the last transmission received.
Whether for casual or professional use, the GPS-MIC-1 may be used to track fleets,
location of users, without huge financial investment. Fleet managers may use the mic
providing an affordable GPS tracking solution to school bus., livery vehicles, etc... All that is
required is an appropriate cable connection to the radio transceiver. Consult the factory for
details.

3.0 How it works
The Infinity Model GPS-MIC-1 is a computerized handheld unit that scans the open skies
looking for 14 GPS satellites overhead. The unit “listens” to these orbiting satellites and
eliminates the weakest satellite signals. From this point the unit computes the location of
the receiver based in the relationship to the satellites being received. The unit them
computes the user’s longitude and latitude which is updated every second, computing
direction of travel, speed and altitude and shown on one main screen.
Stored in the non volatile solid state on-board memory of the unit is the information from
each update. This recording also consists of one setting waypoints, event marker points
and icons, trails and routes as well as when asked, a relationship between the user and up
to 5 or more other users selected in a group, and their relative distances and direction from
the user’s handheld unit.
By connecting a USB cable to the Infinity GPS-MIC-1 unit, one may download all the
collected data to a PC, or, transmit this data over a two way transceiver (of most any type)
to all other programmed group receiving radios as well as the main receiving point and a
PC/or laptop if connected to a radio transceiver and another Model GPS-MIC-1 unit serving
as a central controller over the air. No other interface is required.
Unlike other GPS handled stand-alone units, a built in compass is built inside the unit.
To ensure accuracy, this unit receives GPS satellite information as well as WAAS (Wide
Area Augmentation System) boosting GPS performance increasing GPS accuracy to within
7.6 meters vertically and 2-3 meters horizontally according to the FAA. The GPS-MIC-1
receiver receives the WAAS signal that is transmitted on the GPS signal.
While some remote areas do not receive WAAS signals, the GPS-MIC-1 will operate
normally using the GPS receive only portion of the satellite signal.

4.0 WARNINGS:
While a GPS receiver is a useful tool, always use another method of navigation, such a
map and chart and compass. This unit will always show the navigation information with the
shortest line from your current location to a selected waypoint or users location, regardless
of terrain or obstructions. As a result, the system will not alert you to dangers or
obstructions. User is responsible for safe navigation.

Secure the GPS-MIC-1 cable to the handheld GPS unit using the two set
screws provided with the cable. The connection to the GPS-MIC-1 must be
flush and level.
To use: First power up your two way transceiver. Then power up your
GPS-MIC-1 unit.
Make sure that the battery pack has been charged.
You may connect the USB cable used to charge the battery to the base of
the GPS-MIC-1 unit without removing the radio’s connecting cable. See

Pictured below: Use of a GPS-MIC-1 unit connected to a two way portable
transceiver and laptop using the USB interface cable at the head end
(Incident Command/Dispatch station). This cable connects the two way
transceiver with the laptop or Computer via a USB cable that attaches to the
GPS-MIC-1 unit which serves as the control interface. No need for a base
station if you have string signal strength and good reception with a portable 2
way radio.
Laptop needs to be connected to a live internet connection and Google
Earth ™ using LAN, WiFi, or cellular modem. (other packages available).
Commercial users need to use Google Earth Pro ™.
