By default, there is no power_up application file on the receiver. To use a power up
application file, you must create and save a power_up application file in the GPS

extension .cfg is used, by convention, to identify application files on the office
computer. When you transfer this file to the receiver, the file is saved on the receiver as
power_up, and becomes the new power up file.
