Getting a Fixed Position
Once you have chosen the primary usage for
your GPS Tracker, the STATUS screen will be
displayed. At this point, you should go
outside in an area where you can get a clear
view of the sky. The GPS Tracker will begin
receiving data from the satellites in view and
will display the progress on the STATUS
screen.
Once the receiver has computed a position fix
the POSITION screen will be displayed.
Saving Your Waypoint
Once the receiver has computed your current position, you may save this
position as a waypoint.
To save (MARK) your position as a waypoint,
press MARK, MARK and the waypoint will
be saved with an automatically assigned name.
If this is your first saved position fix, the name
will be WPT001 as shown.
For further information on saving your fixed position with a receiver-
generated name or a user-created name, refer to the Basic Operations
section.
