GPS Tab— the “Info” submenu tab provides a visual reference of satellite acquisition, receiver status, and

accuracy. The status information gives you an idea of what the receiver is doing at any given moment. The

sky view and signal strength bars give you an indication of what satellites are visible to the receiver and

whether or not they are being tracked. The signal strength is shown on a bar graph for each satellite, with

the satellite number below. As the receiver locks onto satellites, a signal strength bar appears for each satel-

lite in view. The progress of satellite acquisition is shown in three stages:

• No signal strength bars— the receiver is looking for the satellites indicated.

• White signal strength bars— the receiver has found the satellite(s) and is collecting data.

• Green signal strength bars— the receiver has collected the necessary data and the satellite(s) are

ready for use.

As soon as the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C has collected the necessary data from the best satellites in

view to calculate a ﬁ x, the status ﬁ eld indicates “Ready For Navigation” in the Status ﬁ eld. The unit then

updates the position, date and time.

You can use the sky view to help determine if any satellites are being blocked, and whether you have

a current position ﬁ x (indicated by a “Ready For Navigation” in the Status ﬁ eld). The sky view shows a

bird’s-eye view of the position of each satellite relative to the receiver’s last known position. The outer circle

represents the horizon (north up), the inner circle 45º above the horizon, and the center point a position

directly overhead. You can also set the sky view to a ‘Track Up’ conﬁ guration, causing the top of the sky

view to align along your current track heading.
