a device with GPS capability.
Select > Global Settings > System > GPS.
Skyview: Shows the relative position of GPS satellites in the sky.
GLONASS: Turns on or off GLONASS data (Russia satellite system). When the system is used in situations with
poor sky visibility, GLONASS data can be used in combination with GPS to provide more accurate position
information.
WAAS/EGNOS: Turns on or off WAAS data (in North America) or EGNOS data (in Europe), which can provide
more-accurate GPS position information. When using WAAS or EGNOS data, the device may take longer to
acquire satellites.
Galileo: Turns on or off Galileo data (European Union satellite system). When the system is used in situations
with poor sky visibility, Galileo data can be used in combination with GPS to provide more accurate position
information.
