Initializing GPS

GPS satellites are 12,000 miles overhead. The first time a

new GPS receiver is turned on, it might have difficulty calcu-

lating its position. To help the receiver calculate its first posi-

tion, you should “initialize” it. You have to do this when:

- The receiver is brand new.

- You have moved more than 500 miles from the last place

you were using it.

- GPS receiver has been reset.

- Or the receiver has not been used for more than a few

months.

Take the MobileMapper CE to a location where there is a clear

view of the sky, then:

- Select the tab, then Programs>GPS Utilities>GPS Initial-

ization

- Initialize the receiver using one of the two methods below:

1.If you don’t have the slightest idea of what the coordi-

nates of your current position are, check the Choose

Country option (see screen opposite), select respec-

tively your region and country in the two fields under-

neath, enter the date and time (bottom of the screen)

and then tap OK to start the initialization process. This

closes the GPS Initialization window.

2.If you have a rough idea of what the coordinates of

your current position are, directly enter these coordi-

nates in the Latitude and Longitude fields (see screen

opposite), enter the date and time (bottom of the

screen) and then tap OK to start the initialization pro-

cess. This closes the GPS Initialization window.

- If you want to check that initialization has been success-

ful, run the GPS Status utility (see Viewing Current GPS

Status on page 14).
