The

Satellite Status

screen will continuously update, and you will be

able to graphically see how well your eXplorist is performing.

When the eXplorist has enough information to compute a position fix,
the

Satellite Status

screen is replaced with the

Plotter

screen. The

arrow cursor in the center of the

Plotter

screen represents your

position. As you move, the arrow will point in the direction you are
traveling.

Tip:

Use the ZOOM IN and ZOOM OUT buttons to change the

plotter scale so that you can see your present position better.

If the eXplorist is unable to compute your initial fix in a few minutes: If the eXplorist
determines that it is unable to track the satellites within a few minutes, it will present
you with the following screens in an effort to better determine its
approximate location.

Select Region. Use the arrow joystick to highlight the region that
you are located in. With the region highlighted, press the ENTER
button.

Select Area. This displays a list of areas for the region you
selected. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight the area that
applies to you, and press the ENTER button.
