Troubleshooting
My device will not acquire GPS signals
If the device is not acquiring satellite signals, there could be a
few causes. If the device has moved a large distance since the
last time it has acquired satellites or has been turned off for
longer than a few weeks or months, the device may not be able
to acquire the satellites correctly.
• Ensure the device is using the latest software. If not, update
the device software (
).
• If the device is using an internal GPS antenna, make sure the
device has a clear view of the sky so the internal antenna can
receive the GPS signal. If it is mounted inside of a cabin, it
should be close to a window so it can receive the GPS signal.
If the device is mounted inside a cabin and cannot be placed
in a location where the device can acquire satellites, use an
external GPS antenna.
• If the device is using an external GPS antenna, make sure
the antenna is connected to the chartplotter or the NMEA
network. If necessary, see the GPS antenna installation
instructions for connection information and diagrams.
• If the device is using an external GPS antenna connected
using the NMEA 2000 network, select
