3.10 SAMPLE TRIP
Now that you have gained a basic understanding of the GPS 55, you are
ready to embark on a sample trip! (The sample illustrations in this section
assume that the factory default settings have not been changed. If you have
changed these parameters, the unit may display slightly different data than
presented here.)
Your GPS 55 is factory initialized with a position of N39°, W095°. A waypoint
named GRMN, located at GARMIN’s Lenexa, Kansas facilities, is also
provided (GARMIN is located 109°, 11.8 nautical miles from the initial
position).
Just for fun, let’s go to GARMIN! Turn on your GPS 55. The power on notices
will be displayed followed by the Satellite Status Page as illustrated below.
The GPS 55 is ready to accept your commands!
