Satellite Status View
The Satellite Status view of the Dashboard Page shows you status information that
helps you understand what the GPS receiver is doing at any given time, and it’s a page
that you’ll want to occasionally refer back to as you use your StreetPilot. It features a sky
view of available satellites, number of satellites, and your current accuracy. Just as in
the Trip Computer view, the power source (external power indication or battery gauge)
is shown.
Satellites are indicated on the sky view by a satellite icon. Satellites that have been
aquired appear green, those that are being aquired (sending data to the StreetPilot)
appear orange and those satellites that are plotted but not yet communicating with the
StreetPilot appear dark. The sky view shows the direction and elevation (angle above the
horizon). The sky view rotates as you drive different directions. The top of the sky view
should be showing the satellites that are in the sky in front of your vehicle. When all
satellites in view have been aquired a “Ready to Navigate” message will appear at the
top of the screen.
