Satellite Signals

After the device is turned on, it begins

acquiring satellite signals. The device

may need a clear view of the sky to

acquire satellite signals. When the

GPS bars on the backlight page

(

page 40

) are solid green, your device

has acquired satellite signals. The time

and date are set automatically based on

the GPS position.
