The first time the unit is turned on, the receiver must collect satellite data and

shipped from the factory in AutoLocate mode, which allows the receiver to “find itself”
anywhere in the world.
During initialization, current database information is displayed. Database information
includes valid operating dates, cycle number, and database type. When this information
has been reviewed for currency (to ensure that no databases have expired), the pilot
is prompted to continue.
