To initialize the receiver:
1. If the ‘country’ option is not highlighted, press the
D
key
repeatedly to move the field highlight to the ‘country’
option.
2. Press the
E
key.
3. Use the
D
key to scroll through the list options until the
country of your present position appears.
4. Use the
U
key to highlight the country/state/region
you’re in. If the country you’re in is not listed, select anoth-
er country within 500 miles of your present position.
5. Press
E
to finish.
The GPS 40 will now begin searching for the appropri-
ate satellites for your position and should acquire a fix
within 3-5 minutes. You can verify that you have acquired a
fix by watching the status page transition to the position
page (provided you haven’t pressed any other buttons) or
looking for a 2D or 3D NAV status at the top left corner of
the status page. To prevent accidental battery power loss,
the GPS 40 will automatically shut off 10 minutes after the
last keystroke if the unit is not tracking at least one satellite
and has never acquired a position fix.
If you have trouble initializing the receiver or getting a
position fix, check the following:
• Does the receiver have a clear view of the sky?
If there are large buildings, rocks, or mountains or if
there is heavy tree cover, the receiver may not be receiv-
ing enough satellite signals to calculate a fix.
• Have you selected the right country/state/region
from the EZinit list?
Check for the correct approximate lat/lon on the posi-
tion page or reselect the appropriate country from the
list to restart the initialization.
• Have you moved more than 500 miles from the last
calculated position with the receiver off?
Reinitialize the receiver, selecting the
country/state/region of your new location from the
EZinit list.
