4. Battery quality issues

1. Use fresh batteries in the unit. Avoid

excessive use of the backlight, which may

shorten battery life.

Unit does not detect

GPS satellites

1. GPS reception is turned off in SET page

2. Insufficient time allowed for satellite acquisition

3. Unit does not have unobstructed view of the sky

1. Make sure GPS is turned ON in the SET

Page. The center circle of the SAT page

should be circling. If not, turn GPS ON in

the SET page.

2. After the unit has been off for an extended

time it may take longer for it to acquire GPS

satellites. Check the SAT page for progress.

3. For fastest acquisition times make sure

the unit has a clear view of the sky. Avoid

areas of heavy brush and areas next to

large buildings or cliffs. Keep unit out of

backpacks and concealed areas in order to

maintain consistent GPS signals. Try holding

the unit further away from your body.

Unit loses Waypoint/

Trail Data

1. Sudden loss of power if batteries were removed

without first turning off the power button

1. Removing the batteries without properly

powering down the unit will cause loss of

recent waypoint and trail data. The unit has

been specially designed to provide a defined,

programmed power down sequence when the

unit is shut down from the power button,

or when the batteries reach their cutoff low

voltage level. Removing the batteries when

the unit is powered on will not allow the unit

to go through the full power down sequence

and will result in the loss of navigation data.

Unit “freezes” or

“locks up”-unable to

turn off normally

1. Processing malfunction or similar cause

1. If holding the power button for 2 sec.

has no effect, remove and reinstall batteries

to reset the unit. Check website for latest

software update (your software version # is

found in the “Unit Info” on SET page).

or cannot be used

1. USB cable was disconnected or power was shut

off before download was completed

2. Unit was used immediately after download with-

out restarting (power off then on again)

1. When downloading information from

the PC program or Web, please wait

until the download has been completed.

Disconnecting the unit prior to completion

of download will result in incomplete data

download and loss of data.

2. After a download, the unit must be

powered off and then powered back on for it

to recognize the data.
