GPS receiver

The GPS receiver is

the device. When using
the receiver, slide the
numeric keypad open
and hold the device
upright in your hand
at an angle of about
45 degrees, with a
clear view of the sky.
Establishing a GPS connection may take from a couple of
seconds to several minutes. Establishing a GPS connection
in the car may take longer.
The GPS receiver takes its power from the battery.

Satellite status
To check how many satellites your device has found, and
whether your device is receiving satellite signals, press
and select
status. If your device has found satellites, a bar for each
satellite is shown in the satellite info view. The longer the
bar, the stronger the satellite signal. When your device has
received enough data from the satellite signal to calculate
the coordinates of your location, the bar turns black.
Initially your device must receive signals from at least four
satellites to be able to calculate the coordinates of your
location. When the initial calculation has been made, it
may be possible to continue calculating the coordinates of
your location with three satellites. However, the accuracy
is generally better when more satellites are found.
If the numeric keypad slide is closed, open it.
If you are outdoors, move to a more open space.
Check that your hand does not cover the GPS antenna
of your device. For the location of the antenna, see
"GPS receiver", p. 68.
If the weather conditions are bad, in such a case the
signal strength may also be affected.
Establishing a GPS connection may take from a couple
of seconds to several minutes.
