Settings had grown to 21 rows in one list. It opens on five groups (This device, Display, GNSS and radio, Network, System); Enter opens one, Back returns to the groups, and Back from the groups leaves Settings. SettingsMenu holds the groups and which one is open (host-tested: every setting is in exactly one group). The guide, the how-tos, the README, the scripts' messages and the firmware's own name the new paths, such as "Settings > System > Firmware".

You need the Cap LoRa-1262, an SD card, and a place with a view of the sky.
- Switch the receiver on: Settings → GNSS and radio → GNSS to On. The Status Bar shows
Gonce it is searching. - Open the GNSS App and wait for a fix. The first line says
Searching: n in viewand how long it has been, then3D Fix, n of m satellites. The first fix outdoors can take a while. - The clock must be set. A fix sets it, and so does Wi-Fi. A Track will not start without one: the App says
Waiting for the time. - Press r. The bottom line says
REC, with the number of points and how long it has been going, and the Status Bar showsREC. You can leave the App: the Track keeps recording. - Press r again to stop, in the GNSS App.
- Open it. In the Storage App, go to
/gnss/tracksand open the.gpxfile: it shows the number of points, the start, the duration and the distance. To see the route on a map, take the card to a computer and open the file in any GPX viewer or mapping tool.
If Pause GNSS for LoRa is on, the receiver stays awake while a Track is being recorded, so recording is not interrupted by the radio.
