unlikely event of an errant pulse count. By using this feature, the user simply has to correct for
one satellite location, and the RC1000A automatically will correct all others.

in memory.

B

keys until the correct

satellite name is displayed.

the

E

key, RESET, to recalibrate all stored satellite locations.

The unit will respond with POSITION SET, and then returns to MAN mode.
