Installing Batteries  

The GPS 100 operates on 2 AA batteries (not

included). To install batteries, twist the D-ring

connector counterclockwise (anticlockwise) and

remove the battery compartment cover. Insert

two AA batteries, ensuring correct polarity

alignment. Replace the battery compartment

cover and twist the D-ring clockwise to lock.

As an optional power source, an Automotive

Power Adapter (not included, see “Optional

Accessories,” in the owner’s manual) can be used

with your GPS 100.

Getting Started

In order to navigate using your GPS 100, you first

must acquire a “fix” on your current position. To

do this, take your GPS 100 outside making sure

you have a clear view of the sky. Press and hold

the POWER button for 2 seconds . A start-up

screen appears , followed by a second screen

that shows you that your unit is attempting to lock

on to signals from GPS satellites. Once satellite

signals have been acquired and locked, the screen

will automatically switch to the Map page, and the

unit is ready to use.

NOTE: When you use the GPS 100 for the

first time, it will take up to approximately 50

seconds to lock on to the GPS satellites.

Turning on the Display Backlight

When the unit is turned on, pressing and releasing

the POWER button will turn on the display backlight.

The display will remain lit for 15 seconds as long

as no other buttons have been pressed.

Go for a Test Walk

Test your knowledge of GPS 100 basics by taking a walk around the block.

1. Load batteries per instructions and take your GPS 100 outdoors. Be sure you have

a clear, unobstructed view of the sky. Turn your unit on by pressing and holding

the POWER button for 2 seconds. Allow time for your GPS 100 to acquire satellite

lock and a “fix” of your current location. When ready the unit will automatically

switch to the Map page. (Remember, you can toggle among the 5 main pages by

pressing the PAGE button.)

2. From the Map page, experiment by selecting options per instructions. For example,

you may want to mark your current location as your first waypoint, and then walk

around your neighborhood marking various points along your path from start point

to end point. (See diagram below.) Then navigate back to your start point by

accessing the Nav Data page, and selecting Navigate and REVERSE to lead you back

the way you came.

Note: When navigating back to your original start point, intentionally walk off

course to familiarize yourself with how the unit shows you where you are relative

to the route or track as shown on the Gauges page.

Keep practicing until you are comfortable using the many features of your GPS 100.

Always refer to your GPS 100 User’s Manual for more detailed instructions.
