    Emprum's UltiMate GPS is the only accessory on the market that provides a real 5Hz location update rate. The competition may claim 10Hz update rate, but only works at 1Hz. The UltiMate GPS also uses a dependable and proven GPS engine that is known for its high accuracy and fast lock times.

    This accessory is enabled to use AGPS data (available from the UltiMate GPS App) for even faster cold start lock times down to 15secs. The accessory is designed around a well-proven MTK chipset that has 51 satellite tracking channels and that is DGPS enabled (SBAS, WAAS, EGNOS, MSAS) and the accessory retains most recent satellite data after power-off.

    The included USB cable with quick-connect button is custom designed by Emprum and allows for a full 2.1A charging current (which is e.g. required for your iPad).

    This accessory works on all iPod touch models (1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation), all iPhone models (iPhone,iPhone 3G and 3Gs,iPhone 4 and 4S) and all iPad models (iPad,iPad 2,iPad 3) as well as your PC.

    Note: This accessory does not provide internet or WiFi access and is best used with applications that do not require a continuous internet connection.

    Lock Onto the Great Outdoors


    Enjoy Clear Reception
    With a high-sensitivity, WAAS-enabled GPS receiver, the unit locates your position quickly and precisely and maintains its GPS location even in heavy cover. The advantage is clear: whether you're traipsing through thick woods or strolling near tall buildings and trees, you can count on the Vista HCx to help you find your way when you need it the most.

    Get Your Bearings
    The Vista HCx also includes a built-in electronic compass that provides bearing information even when you're standing still, along with a barometric altimeter that tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude. You can even use the altimeter to plot barometric pressure over time, which can help you keep an eye on changing weather conditions.

    Expand Your Memory
    Adding maps to the Vista HCx is easier than ever thanks to the device's microSD card slot, which accepts cards preloaded with MapSource data for your land and sea excursions. Just insert a MapSource card with detailed street maps, and the Vista HCx will provide turn-by-turn directions to your destination. Plus, the card slot is located inside the waterproof battery compartment, so you needn't worry about it getting wet.

    Intuitive Control
    Besides appreciating its small size, users will also be happy with the Vista HCx's unique button layout, with five buttons located on either side of the unit. The benefits of this design are twofold: First, the Vista HCx is a breeze to operate with just one hand, and, second, with the buttons on both sides of the unit, the bulk of the front is dedicated to the 256-color, sunlight-readable TFT display. This makes it easy to distinguish map details regardless of the time of day.

    Comprehensive Basemap
    The Vista HCx basemap, meanwhile, contains lakes, rivers, cities, interstates, national and state highways, railroads, and coastlines--in short, a host of helpful details for your outdoor adventures.

    Additional Features
    Other details include an IPX7 waterproof housing, 1,000 waypoints with names and graphic symbols, a built-in patch antenna, a USB interface, a hunt/fish calendar, sun and moon information, and a geocaching mode. The Vista HCx, which runs for up to 25 hours on a pair of AA batteries (not included), measures 2.2 by 4.2 by 1.2 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a one-year warranty.

    What's in the Box

    eTrex Vista HCx, basemap, MapSource Trip & Waypoint Manager software, USB cable, wrist strap, quick start guide, user's manual.
