GPS Status

Click the Options button in Guidance Mode to
open a window that enables you to view your
GPS status and change the settings that control
map orientation, voice options, and routing and
guidance preferences.

NOTE: Map and routing options that are set in
Guidance Mode carry over to Planning Mode
and the reverse is also true.

In the Options window, the GPS Status button
opens a dialog box that allows you to view and
change advanced GPS settings.

From here you can change the COM Port and
Baud settings for your receiver, or click Find
GPS
to automatically adjust these settings.
Reset GPS lets you enter a city, state from where
CoPilot can search for satellites. Typically this
search is based off your last location, but Reset
can speed up acquisition if you’ve traveled a
long distance without using CoPilot (for example,
if you’ve flown on a plane from New York to Los
Angeles).
