8.5) Observing satellite lock status
1. Tap anywhere on the map screen.
2. Tap on CONFIGURE.
3. Scroll to the next page and choose GPS STATUS.
Take notice of the HEALTH status as shown above. It will tell you how many satellites are
locked.
At the bottom of the screen it will show individual satellite locks as follows:
White bar: The nav unit has locked onto that satellite.
Gray Bar: The nav unit is in the process of locking onto that satellite.
No Bar:
There is no satellite reception on that channel.
The nav unit must lock onto at least 4 satellites before it will be ready to navigate.
The RESET button will reset the satellite receiver. You will immediately lose all satellite
reception. It may take 5 to 10 minutes to re-acquire satellites. Do not press RESET unless you
really want to reset the satellite receiver!
