Find Your Current Position
When you turn on the iFINDER, it automatically searches for satellites
and under clear sky conditions, calculates its position in approximately
one minute or less.
NOTE:
Clear sky means open sky, unobstructed by terrain, dense foliage or
structures. Clouds do not restrict GPS signal reception.
If for some reason satellite acquisition takes longer, you may be inside
a structure or vehicle or in terrain that is blocking signal reception. To
correct this, be sure you are positioned so the unit has as clear a view of
the sky as possible, then turn the unit off and back on again.
If the cursor is activated, any information the unit gives you will be
based on the cursor position, not your own. If you want to find where
you are, just press
EXIT until the cursor goes away and the map snaps
back to your position.
