Initializing the GPS Receiver

Before the GPS 72 can be used for navigation the GPS receiver must be initialized. The

GPS receiver should only need to be initialized the ﬁ rst time the unit is used or if it has

been stored several months.

The GPS 72 stores orbital data for each satellite in an Almanac. The orbital data is

supplied in the satellite signals. Each time the unit is used the Almanac is updated. This

is how the GPS 72 knows which satellites to search for. If you do not use your GPS for

several months or move the unit several hundred miles between uses the Almanac can

become “cold” that is to say that the orbital information is no longer valid. If the Almanac

is “cold” your unit may have trouble locking on to satellite signals. If the unit is unable to

receive enough satellite signals to determine its location it will display an options menu.

Initializing the GPS Receiver:

1. With resh batteries installed, take the unit outside where a clear 360° view o the sky

can be obtained.

2. Turn the unit on and hold it in ront o you with the top o the unit tilted upward. Follow

the screen prompts, pressing PAGE to display the GPS In ormation Page.

3. The initialization process is automatic. It should take the GPS 72 no longer than ﬁ ve

minutes to acquire enough satellite signals to become operational. When the unit

is able to navigate, it will display either 2D GPS Location or 3D GPS Location in the

Receiver Status Field.

Initialization Options

If the GPS 72 is unable to determine its location an options menu will be displayed.

Depending on the situation select an option to help the unit acquire satellites. To select an

option place the highlight over the option then press ENTER.

Start Simulator —

The Simulator can be used when you are indoors and the GPS is

unable to locate satellites. When you select ‘Simulator’ the GPS receiver is turned off

saving battery power.

New Location —

If you have moved the unit to another state province or country and

you are having trouble locking onto satellite signals select ‘New Location’.

When you select ‘New Location’ another menu will be displayed. This menu contains

the options ‘Automatic’ or ‘Use Map’. If you select ‘Automatic’ the unit will switch to

the AutoLocate mode and begin searching for satellites. If you select ‘Use Map’ you can

use the Pointer on the Map Page to select your approximate location and the unit will

continue to acquire satellites normally. ‘Automatic’ may take longer to acquire satellites.

Stored w/o Batteries —

If you have stored the unit without batteries the date stored in

the GPS may be incorrect. To check the date highlight ‘Stored w/o Batteries’ and verify

the date displayed. If the date is incorrect select ‘Stored w/o Batteries’ to search for

satellites.

Continue Acquiring —

Select this option if you are in an area where the satellite signals

are being temporarily blocked.
