Whistler WGPX-545/550
Quick Troubleshooting
Takes More Than 10 Minutes To Get A Position Fix:
1. If there are any obstacles nearby or overhead, move to a new location.
2. Make sure that the antenna is pointing up, has a clear view of the sky and is a reasonable
distance away from any metal.
3. Check Satellite Status screen to see if the receiver is acquiring data.
Battery Life Seems Shorter Than It Should Be:
1. Shorter lifespan of the battery can be due to excessive use of the backlight. Turn the backlight
off when not needed.
2. Lower the volume when playing MP3 files.
Position On Map Is Not Exactly On The Road.
It could be caused by distance shifts to the digitized map. Possibly a weak signal or not enough
satellites overhead to provide accurate position.
Windshield Bracket Does Not Stick On Window.
1. Remove protective plastic from the suction cup.
2. Clean the suction cup and area on the windshield with window cleaner and retry.
