First Time Use - Initializing the Receiver
The constellation of 24 GPS satellites circling the globe is in
constant motion and before your receiver can tell you where
you are, it needs to know where the satellites are relative to
itself. Your receiver’s internal almanac tells it which satellites
are in view at a given geographic position.
Therefore, you need to enter your approximate location, time
and date, which will serve as a point of reference for your
receiver in selecting the best satellites to use. Without know-
ing its approximate location, the receiver may take 10 min-
utes or more to find the specific coordinates of your position.
Telling your receiver the initial position, time and date is called
initializing your receiver; initializing enables it to begin track-
ing satellites and, therefore, calculate your position much faster.
You need not reinitialize your receiver each time
you use it, but only if the unit has moved over 300
miles without computing a position or if the total
memory has been cleared by the user. If you do
not reinitialize, the receiver may take 10 minutes
or more to compute a new position fix.
Entering an Approximate Initial Position. To give your re-
ceiver an approximation of its current position, you will need
to enter the latitude and longitude of your general location.
The NAV 6000 allows you to enter the location quickly and
easily using the MAP screen.
While viewing the Satellite Status screen, press the INIT
softkey. The Map screen appears with the cursor positioned
over 0
°
latitude, 0
°
longitude (or last initialized position).
If a cartridge is inserted in the NAV 6000, the cursor will
appear over the center of the cartridge’s area of coverage.
