Primary Pages

The GPS 125 Sounder uses six primary “pages” to

give you information. The pages are arranged in a con-
tinual loop and can be easily viewed in forward or
reverse order by pressing either the J or

Q

key.

Before we start the tour, let’s briefly look at these pages.

Satellite Page

The Satellite Page shows satellite positions and

signal strength. Satellite positions are shown using a
“birds-eye-view” display. Signal strength bars are shown
for each satellite in use. Satellite status and estimated
position error (EPE) are shown in the upper corners.

Position Page

The Position Page shows you where you are, what

direction you’re heading and how fast you’re going. The
top of the page contains a compass tape which is a
graphic representation of your heading. Your track and
speed are indicated immediately below, with the digital
depth displayed at the bottom of the page.

The graphic compass tape reflects your head-
ing only while you are moving.

The rest of the page shows your current position in

three dimensions: latitude, longitude and altitude. A
trip odometer and 12/24-hour clock are also provided.

Sounder Page

The Sounder Page gives a view of the water

beneath your boat while displaying sonar contacts and
bottom contour.
