1.00 Overview
1.00 Overview
Welcome to the world of OS mapping with
GPS!
The Active 10 is an intuitive unit, easy to use.Switch it on, wait for a couple of minutes and
your position is shown as being the centre of the screen. As you move, so does the map.The unit is waterproof and the screen is back-lit which means it can be used day or night inany weather.
OS maps are sold separately on SD cards.
The unit is supplied with a UK road map.
The Active 10 is a standalone unit and youcan plan routes on it whilst in the greatoutdoors. Satmap’s online Route Planner
allows the download of pre-planned routes,the upload of routes for editing and theprinting of a paper version of the route totake as back-up when outdoors.
The rock-steady bike bracket accessorymakes the unit ideal for mountain bikingand the unit is tailor-made for geocaching.
1.01 Getting Started
Outdoors, the unit should get a lock withinthree minutes. If it takes much longer, pleasecontact Satmap. Hibernate mode allowsrapid satellite lock as the unit remembers thesatellites' position.
In this manual, displays of mapping arereferred to as ‘screens’ and displays of other information are referred to as ‘pages’. Themain mapping screen is titled GPS Map
(section 3.00). Use the zoom buttons, shownin section (ii), for detail/perspective.
Moving the joystick changes the screen tothe PLANNING screen (section 6.00); theblue position indicator circle will move away
from the middle of the screen as you controlthe joystick to move the map. A visual cuethat you are in planning mode is the orangelocator circle which has longer crosshairs.In planning mode you can plan routes andalso study the map using the joystick to pan(keep it pressed in the desired direction andthe map moves faster).
Although you will not get more detail than thatavailable with 1:25k scale mapping, zoomingin to closer scales allows magnication of
detail which is sometimes hard to make outon paper maps.
Whilst stationary, the unit will appear to berecording travelled distance and ascendedheight. This is due to the way GPS works.On car devices, ltering and ‘locking’ masksthe effect, but the Active 10 is designed for a different purpose and its sensitivity meansthat incremental differences in ‘xes’ accrue,
resulting in an incorrect log. The unit gives
accurate data once moving.The TRIP LOG page has a Start/Stop buttonfor data logging. To clear previous data,press the Menu button, then choose a resetoption. To begin data logging, press Start.If you pause, say, for lunch, press Stop butremember to press Start when you resume.Press Stop when you nish the route. A Stop/
Record icon next to the battery indicator showswhether the data log is paused or recording.
Until Reset is pressed, the unit will operate asif you are following a single route. This meansthat if you press Stop, then relocate by car for
example, on pressing Start again the car journey is represented by a straight line crumbtrail and the data log will incorporate the car journey.
An advantage of buying the rechargeablebattery is that you should always be able to setoff with a fully charged battery which meansno break in contacts whilst changing batteries,hence no loss of logged data. A secondadvantage is that the rechargeable batterylasts signicantly longer than AAs.
To conserve battery power: press the frontright button until you see ‘Settings’, selectSettings, then Power Control and then adjustAutomatic Screen Turn Off (to, say, ‘Off after 3 minutes’) by pushing the joystick sideways.Press Done, then Map.
The Trail Up facility is disabled when inpowersave mode.
As with most software products, there will
always be ongoing updates and developments.We strive continually to improve our productand value any feedback you may like to sharewith us. Please remember to register your Active 10 online so that we can notify you of updates which are available for download fromour website.

2.00 Introduction
Welcome to the Satmap Active 10. Thisproduct has been designed for use in outdoor sports such as walking, mountain biking,geocaching, orienteering, cross-country
horse riding, family cycle rides and manyother outdoor activities. Although robust andrugged it has not been designed to be your sole navigational aid. Since, like all electricaldevices, the batteries can run out, we stronglyadvise users to carry paper mapping as aback up. A paper map of your location canbe printed from our website's Route Planner.It is also advised that users are familiar withmapping cartography and can read andunderstand map symbols. (The symbols for both the OS Explorer 1:25,000 (1:25k) andLandranger 1:50,000 (1:50k) series mappingare given on our website.) The Satmap Active10 is an enriching and valuable aid to theoutdoor experience, allowing you to focuson your sport without worrying about your location.
This product is sold in conjunction withSatmap’s terms and conditions of sale.Please be aware that Satmap Systems Ltd.will upgrade this product on an ongoing basis
and therefore this manual will be amendedfrom time to time.
2.01 The Global Positioning System
(GPS)
The GPS system is a U.S. space-basedglobal radio navigation system. GPS is madeup of three parts; between 24 and 32 satellites
orbiting the earth, four ground stations andthe GPS receivers owned by users. It took20 years to get the required 24 satellites inorbit and the system became operational in1994. It is maintained by the U.S. government(currently costing $400 million a year), and isa free service offered for the public good.
2.02 How GPS Works
GPS works by measuring your locationrelative to four or more satellites
simultaneously. Knowing the exact locationof the satellites, the receiver (Active 10) candetermine its latitude, longitude and heightwhilst at the same time synchronizing its clockwith the satellites’ atomic clocks.
In addition to being an accurate locationdevice, the Active 10 is a precise timepieceand can therefore perform forward speedcalculations.
2.03 SatSYNC
SatSYNC is free software available for download from our website. It allows you toconnect your Active 10 to a PC via a standardUSB connection. With this software youcan upload/download routes and Points of Interest. These les can then be shared via
2.00 Introduction
e-mail, forums (eg. the Satmap Route ShareForum) or viewed on PC based mappingsystems compatible with the Satmap format(eg. the Satmap Online Route Planner).
To view your trail on a PC:
• Connect the Active 10 to a PC• Open SatSYNC
• Select the trail data (a .gpx le) and copy
this to your desktop• Drag the le into your PC mapping system
eg. the Satmap Online Route Planner or Google Earth. (See sections 7.04 & 9.07)
2.04 Base Mapping
The Active 10 is supplied with a 1:1,000,000scale road map of the UK and a world map at1:30,000,000.
1:25k and 1:50k Ordnance Survey mappingis available on SD cards and a large selectionof maps is on sale from the Satmap website.Our popular custom mapping is centred on alocation of your choosing, thereby eliminatingthe problems traditionally encountered whenyou reach the edge of a map.
Once a map card is inserted, zoom ‘through’the base mapping to see more detail.On premium map cards, you can zoomseamlessly between 1:50k and 1:25k scalemapping.

2.05 Battery Insertion
The Active 10 is powered by either three AAbatteries or a rechargeable battery (section12.00 (b) ). AA batteries vary signicantly in
power and life from one type to another. The
most powerful on the market are the LithiumEnergisers, a set of which are supplied withthe Active 10. It is not advisable to use cheapbatteries in the unit as they will have a shortlife.
2.06 Switching On and Off
When rst installed, the software allows users
to select the operating language. Whatever language is selected, the unit is then set for the appropriate GPS position: ie. selecting
English sets up the GPS default to GreatBritain.
After switching on the unit the GPS STATUS page (section 4.04) will load up, the bars atthe bottom of the page indicate how manysatellites are in range of the Active 10.
When the bars turn from yellow to orangethis shows that the unit has locked on to thatspecic satellite. In general the unit needs a
minimum of four satellites to get a lock.
To switch the unit off, press the On/Off buttonand a Power Off? page is displayed in order to prevent accidental switch-off; select Yes.Your data will be saved before power off. If noselection is made after 10 seconds the unitwill revert to the previous page.
2.07 Map Card Insertion
The map card door is hinged at the bottomand opens from the top downwards. Wheninserting the card please ensure that the labelis facing you with the arrow pointing inwards.
2.08 Keyboard Lock
The Power Off? page has a padlock (keypadlock) icon by the On/Off button. Press the On/Off button to lock the keypad. A padlock iconis displayed by the battery indicator.
To unlock the keypad press any button andan Unlock? page is displayed. Select Yes
to unlock the keypad. If no selection is madeafter 3 seconds the unit will revert to theprevious page.
2.09 Battery Indicator & Stop/Record Icon
The battery indicator is solid for new or fullycharged cells. As the charge decreases itis broken into four bars which then reduce.When a single bar remains, it is coded red.After some further time (depending on thepower source and the activity ie. load), thereis an on-screen warning that the unit willpower off in 30 seconds and a countdown isshown.
Next to the battery indicator is the Stop/Record icon, indicating that data logging,shown on the TRIP LOG page (section 4.03),is either paused or recording. When the unithas lock, the record icon is a solid greenarrowhead. Without lock the record icon is‘empty’.

Successful satellite lock (a ‘x’) is indicated
at the top left of the screen, by the red crossturning to a green signal icon. The number of green crescents represents received signalstrength. A weak lock is indicated by a singlecrescent plus a ‘2D’ caption (section 4.04).
The unit is WAAS/Egnos enabled. This meansusers in the south of England and mainlandEurope are able to benet from ‘differential’
GPS when one of the EGNOS satellites isin view (section 13.00). When this service isavailable, the green signal crescents turn blueand accuracy is enhanced. The unit does notlock on to the EGNOS satellites in the sameway as with the GPS satellites, because theytransmit a different type of data. On the GPS
STATUS page, when visible, the EGNOSsatellite icons (numbered 120, 122, 124 and126) remain yellow and do not turn orange.
Your position is shown as a blue dot in thecentre of the screen. Once moving, a pointer appears on the blue circle, indicating thecurrent direction of travel. As you move, asnail trail of red dots is laid down, indicatingthe path you have taken. (To change the dotsize, see section 8.00).
The Active 10 logs your position once everysecond. The rate at which red dots aredisplayed depends on the map scale andthe speed of travel. Dots are laid down suchthat an appropriate distance is renderedbetween them to create a clear track. There isa powersave setting (see Advanced Power

displayed when switching on the unit (unlessthere is already a map card inserted in whichcase the unit will briey show the Map Packs page, see section 3.01).
The elliptical diagram represents the skyabove you where North is up. Satellites visibleto the unit are allocated numbers and alsoshown on the bar chart. Yellow bars indicatethe unit can see a satelli te. The bars changeto orange when the unit has acquired a lock.There are also indications of Signal to Noise
Ratio (Av SNR and Max SNR).
On acquiring lock, the GPS STATUS will goto the GPS Map screen. For best results inachieving satellite lock the unit should beshowing the GPS STATUS page.
To access the GPS STATUS page from theGPS Map screen, keep pressing the Page button (front right button) until you reach theGPS STATUS page.
The upper section of the GPS STATUS pageshows details of your last known location,including time, date and grid reference. (Gridreference format options are given in GPS

As a guide, a minimum of four satellites areneeded to acquire lock and the Signal toNoise Ratio (SNR) gure should be 30+.
The signal indicator (either red cross or greensignal icon) indicates the strength of signal
received by the unit. The GPS indicator caption at the bottom of the screen either says ‘Acquiring GPS’ or gives accuracy towithin a certain distance.
If the unit is receiving a poor signal eg. under wet tree canopy, it may only be able to givetwo dimensional data (losing elevation data).Under these circumstances the elevationcaption at the top right of the screen will show‘2D’ instead of an elevation gure. The signal
received icon at the top left will also show a

When the ‘Calibration Required’ prompt isdisplayed at the bottom of the COMPASS page, follow the on-screen instructions. Press

4) Press Stop when completed turning or cancel to quit.
An on-screen message ‘Keep turning’ is
replaced with ‘Completed. Press Stop’.
Due to the earth’s changing magnetic eld,
the unit’s on-board electronic compass shouldbe re-calibrated every six months.
In practice other considerations should alsobe taken into account.
When moving, it is better to use the GPSheading as opposed to the electroniccompass. (Achieved by setting the override
speed fairly low eg the default setting of 2kph, see GPS Settings, section 5.07). TheGPS requires forward motion to provide aheading; it will not work when static.
The electronic compass is affected whenbrought into proximity with metal objectswhich means for example, that once mountedon a bike’s handlebars it should bere-calibrated. To do this follow the instructionsexactly as you would if the unit were in your
hands, when asked to turn the compassin two full circles (720 degrees) you mustpick up the bike with the unit and rotate asrequested.
When subsequently removed and used for walking, a further recalibration is required.
It should also be re-calibrated when adifferent battery type is inserted, due to thevarying metal content from one battery typeto the next.

A Point Of Interest (POI) is a specic point
on the map with some level of detail or information attached.
If there are POIs stored on the unit and also
on a mapcard, two folders will be shown,called Internal Storage and SD Card. Thefolders contain POI categories, each of which in turn contains one or more POIs.
There are three ways of setting a POI andthese are given in section 9.01.
When the rst POI is laid down, a POI
category is automatically created for it. Bydefault it is called My POIs until it isrenamed (section 9.03a). Also, the Internal
Storage folder is automatically created.
POIs may be moved to an SD card (sections9.03f & 9.03g). When this happens theSD Card folder is automatically created.

12.00 World Base Map
The world map is derived from data suppliedby Collins Bartholomew. At 1:30m you getan overview of the world and once you havezoomed down to 1:5m you will see the major roads, towns and cities in every country. Suchdetails provide a useful backdrop when you
are using the Active 10 internationally.
13.00 General FAQs
Which mapscale is best for me?It depends on where you intend to usethe device. If you are using footpaths or bridleways (eg. walking/running/mountainbiking) you will need the more detailed 1:25k,if you are using lanes/roads (eg. road cycling)then 1:50k is ne.
When I buy a mapcard with both 1:25k and1:50k mapping, how do I switch between thescales?Zoom in on the 1:50k map and the unit willseamlessly switch to the 1:25k map and viceversa.
When resuming normal function from thepowersave screen off mode, will I have to waitfor the unit to re-acquire lock or update the triplog stats?
No. Pressing any button instantly brings upthe GPS screen with all functions updated.
Does the unit make any audible sound whenyou leave a planned route, ie. miss a turn?No, but you will quickly spot any mistakes
by the divergence of the snail trail from your route.
Why does my unit sometimes make beepingnoises?The unit will beep when it encounters PointsOf Interest, Waypoints, GoTo Points or
Routes. It will also beep when a map card isinserted (section 5.12), when the unitacquires lock, when a screenshot is taken(section 5.03a) and when POIs/routes aretransferred.
Can the display be shown as Trail Up andNorth Up?Yes. On the GPS screen, press the front leftbutton to toggle between TrailUp and NorthUp.
Can I choose not to have the snail trail?Yes. On the Planning screen, either pressthe left side upper button or centre press the joystick to go to the Position Info page. Onthe Position Info screen, the front left buttontoggles between Turn Trail On, Turn TrailSmall and Turn Trail Off.
How easy is it to follow my footsteps backdown exactly, if weather closes in on a craggyroute or summit?No problem. Since your current position is
shown by a blue locator circle and dot, it iseasy to see it superimposed over the red dotswhen retracing your steps.

next despite no forward movement. Thisincremental movement is cumulative. Withforward motion of more than 2kph, the GPSlocation given is very accurate.
(Car GPS navigation systems disguise theseeffects; they use a road navigation databaseto draw road images, as opposed to accuratecartographic images, and use ltering to ‘lock’
the position to a road.)
How do I remove the screen cover?This needs to be done with care! The screencover is held in place by three lugs. Usingngernails or a small screwdriver, rst prise
loose the top lug (central position, under the‘GPS’ logo). Then prise loose the two sidelugs (just above the side buttons), one at atime. When replacing the new cover, reverse
the sequence of lugs, pressing each rmlyinto place.
Note: When the cover is off, take care not to
scratch or unnecessarily expose to moisture,
the screen beneath. Any debris eg. uff, bre
or dust on the screen should be removed with
extreme care.
Why would I want to set a Go To point?If you are on a route and the weather closesin, you may want to plot an emergencyescape route. Set a GoTo point (sections 7.05& 8.00), which creates a yellow straight lineroute between your current location and your GoTo point. You can then make your own
route follow this route as closely as possible.It is a visual cue as to your emergency ‘exit’. AGoTo point is indicated on the map by a greenag; there can be only one!
Can the unit be used in a car? Or anaeroplane?Although at the time of printing there is nowindscreen mount available, the unit maybe used in a car to show your location. Of course, no directions are given! The maximum
operating forward speed of the unit is 780mph, so it can be used in an aircraft (subjectto operators’ regulations).
When I’m stationary, why does my Active 10trip log show increasing distance?In the basic method of triangulation, smallsystem errors give rise to something calledthe Circular Error Probability (CEP) valuewhich determines the radius of a circlecontaining 50% of the GPS readings; thisis one of the elements used by the unit incalculating its position. The more visiblesatellites there are, the smaller the CEP valueand the more accurate the position given.Within a certain radius, the location pinpointedmay vary slightly from one second to the

Is the unit robust enough to cope with themore severe shocks through the handlebarsthat off-road terrain gives?Yes, the unit is able to cope with severeshocks. In development, the unit was test
dropped from a height of one metre ontoconcrete in all planes. There have been moreextreme instances reported with no damageresulting — this is not recommended!
Whilst travelling quickly, is the unit sensitiveenough to display my real-time position so Idon’t ride past turnings?Yes. If there’s a lot of detail to sort out, justzoom in to be able to see what’s coming upahead.
14.00 Troubleshooting & Tips
14.00 Troubleshooting 14.01 Tips • Remembering to use the Stop (data logging)

14.00 Troubleshooting
• If your unit fails to recognise a map card,
switch it off, remove the card, switch on andre-insert the card.
• If your screen ickers, wait 10 minutes or so
and it should stop. Some ickering is normal
and happens when using a strong power source such as the supplied AA LithiumEnergisers, the most powerful AA batterieson the market.
• When the unit is in the process of acquiring
a satellite lock, a straight line false track islaid down. This ‘spike’ is around 5 km longand the track arrives at your location. If youwish to have an accurate trip log you willneed to clear the track and reset the trip logbefore you start your journey. It is plannedto remove the spike in a future softwareupdate.
14.01 Tips
• Do not use alcohol wipes to clean the
screen as this will cause damage. In order to preserve your screen cover for as long aspossible, avoid contact with alcohol, oils andexcessive heat. Always use a very soft clothto clean.
• Ensure the map card is dry before inserting
it into the unit.
• To prevent the screen inadvertently
switching from GPS Map to PLANNING,either lock the screen (section 2.07), or allowit to go into the powersave screen off modebefore stowing it away.
• For best performance in acquiring satellite
lock, wait until lock is established before
inserting a map card.
• To maximize battery life;
1. Use the screensave (‘Automatic ScreenTurn Off’) mode which switches off thescreen but keeps the GPS running.
2. Try to minimize the backlight setting as far as is practical.
• If you want to carry out route planning on
your Active 10, a good way to get more
out of your batteries is to connect the unitto your pc or laptop. • When not using the
Active 10, it is recommended that you takeout the batteries. Even with the unit switchedoff, there is a small power draw which, over time, can atten the batteries.
Remembering to use the Stop (data logging)button (section 4.03) is useful if you wanta break and yet maintain a log of all tripstatistics. Don’t forget to press Start onceyou are ready to go again, especially if itwas a pub break! If you do not press Stop and you are stationary for a period of time,
a snail trail ‘scribble’ will develop as the unit‘hunts’ (section 11.00).
• To plan a route from a given set of grid
coordinates: On the PLANNING screen, goto the approximate area of the walk/activity.Go to ROUTES MENU (side button, lower left) and select Create New Route. The databox overlay gives the coordinates for thelocation of the crosshairs. Using the joystick,move the crosshairs until you have thedesired grid coordinates showing and either
press the ‘add waypoint’ button (side button,upper left) or centre press the joystick. Onceall waypoints have been added, press Done.
• It is recommended that you make a back-up
le copy of any maps that you purchase.
Back-up may be done either using a cardreader or an SD card slot on your computer.If your map card data is corrupted or erased,copy the le back onto the original card.
Data transferred to a different card will not
be usable.

the move, even whilst driving. However thiscan cause a delay in the time to get a lockso it is advisable to allow the unit to get a x
whilst stationary.
• ‘Rangender’ functions:
Short range:On the PLANNING screen, the blue locator circle which depicts your position in thecentre of the GPS Map screen, is still activeand shows you advancing across the screen.The data overlay shows the distance fromthe blue locator circle (your location) to theorange locator circle which is now the centreof the screen, eg. position the orange circleat a target destination and follow progressof the blue circle as you walk towards the
target.Long range:
On moving the joystick, the GPS Map screenswitches to PLANNING. The data overlayincludes the distance from where you lasthad GPS lock. This is also useful in a varietyof scenarios, eg. showing distance to thenext waypoint, or in the car, distance to thenext motorway services.
• Use a GoTo point as a rangender: Set
a GoTo point on your destination (section8.00). Press ‘Lock to GPS’ (front left button)to return to the GPS Map screen. Select adata box overlay (section 3.00) and selectGoTo Dist (section 5.04a). The data overlaywill now show a straight line distance fromyour current location to the GoTo point.

of screensave mode (‘automatic screenturn off’, section 5.01) with the keypad lock(section 2.07). Whilst the unit is stowedthe screen cannot be activated (even if thepower button is pressed it will be activatedonly for the preset time until the screen
switches off). To reactivate the unit, pressthe power button and select unlock.
Remote rangender: ‘Marker’
This function allows you to nd the distance
between two points. From either GoTo and
Marker Menu (section 10.00) or POSITION
INFO (section 8.00), set a marker (red ag)
and then move the joystick; a red line isdrawn from the marker to the point selected.The overlay shows the grid ref and altitudeof the point selected, plus the distance and
bearing to the point.
