This item is used to adjust settings for optional GP-1 or GP-1A
GPS units (0 333).
The unit can be connected to the camera’s
accessory terminal (0 333) using the cable supplied with the

connected, when it displays the current latitude, longitude,
altitude, and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) as reported by
the unit.
• Set clock from satellite: Choose Yes to set the camera clock based
on the time provided by the satellite navigation system.
