Starting Up the GPS Receiver
Whenever you turn on the GPSmap 60C, the GPS receiver begins to
search for satellites in order to determine its location which is necessary
for navigation. This process is called “initialization” and can take up to
15 minutes the fi rst time you use your unit. Thereafter, if you haven’t
moved move than 600 miles from your original location, it takes only
seconds to minutes. In order to receive satellite signals, you must be
outdoors and have a clear view of the sky. Satellite signals cannot pass
through solid materials (except glass) or dense overhead tree cover. To
shorten the time required for this fi rst initialization, select “New Location”
from the options menu, then you can use the Map Page to determine
your general location
so the GPSmap 60C can search for just those satel-
lites above your position.
T
o initialize your GPSmap 60C:
1. Press and release the POWER key to turn on the unit.
2. Observe the Welcome Page followed by the Satellite Page.
3. While the GPS receiver is searching for the satellite signals, an
“Acquiring Satellites” message appears at the top of the page.
You will also observe a sky view array of the satellites overhead
with your position centered in the array. The outer circle represents the
horizon and the inner circle a position 45
o
from the horizon. The num-
bers displayed indicate the number assigned to each satellite. A bar graph
displays the strength of signals from each satellite.
