Visible Satellites Computed
Figure 12 is the second screen in the Initialization Wizard process. This screen is displayed when a valid site
location screen has been entered. This is an information-only screen and lets the operator know how many
satellites are in the current satellite table and to which hemisphere the site is located. If the hemisphere is
incorrect, he must repeat the first step and enter the correct site information. Selecting the Prev button will
allow the operator to re-enter the Site Location. Choosing the Next button will continue the Initialization
Wizard process by downloading to the PC the satellite table used for initialization. Figure 13 displays the
expected popup window that notifies the operator of the action completed. Selecting the OK button on the
popup window will continue the process.
