Garmin GPSMAP 276C, Руководство пользователя

Страница: 13 / 134

The progress of satellite acquisition is shown in three stages:
•
No signal strength bars
—the receiver is looking for the
satellites indicated.
•
White signal strength bars
—the receiver has found the
satellite and is collecting data.
• Green signal strength bars —the receiver has collected the
necessary data from this satellite.
When the GPSMAP 276C collects the necessary data from the best
satellites in view to calculate a fix, the status field indicates the status
of the receiver. The unit then updates the location, date, and time.
Receiver Status
The Receiver Status field shows one of the following conditions:
•
Searching the Sky
—the receiver is looking for satellites.
• AutoLocate —the receiver is looking for any satellite whose
almanac was collected, which can take up to five minutes.
• Acquiring Satellites —the receiver is looking for and
collecting data from satellites visible at its last known or
initialized location but has not acquired a fix.
• 2D GPS Location —At least three satellites were acquired
and a two-dimensional position fix was calculated.
“2D Differential” appears when you are receiving DGPS
corrections in 2D mode, and a “D” appears on the strength bar
of satellites being corrected.
• 3D GPS Location —At least four satellites were acquired
and a three-dimensional fix was calculated. “3D Differential”
appears when you are receiving DGPS corrections in
3D mode, and a “D” appears on the strength bar of satellites
being corrected.
• Lost Satellite Reception —the receiver is no longer tracking
enough satellites for a 2D or 3D fix.
• Receiver Not Usable —the receiver is unusable, possibly due
to interference or abnormal satellite conditions. Turn the unit
off and back on to reset.
• Simulating GPS —the receiver is in Simulator Mode.
• GPS Off —the GPS receiver is turned off.
