Initializing the GPS Receiver

The GPSMAP 76 needs to be initialized the rst time

the unit is used, if it has been stored several months,

or if it has been moved over 600 miles. The Almanac

within unit stores each satellite’s orbital data that is

supplied in the satellite signals. The GPSMAP 76 uses

the Almanac to know which satellites to search for

and automatically updates each time the unit aquires

satellites. If you do not use your GPS for several

months or move the unit over 600 miles between

uses, the Almanac can become “cold” and the orbital

information is no longer valid. Your unit may have

trouble locking on to satellite signals using a “cold”

Almanac. If the unit is unable to receive enough

satellite signals to determine its location and update the

Almanac, it displays an options menu.

Initializing the GPS Receiver:

1. With fresh batteries installed, take the unit

outside for a clear 360° view of the sky.

2. Turn the unit on and hold it in front of you with

the top of the unit tilted upward. Follow the

screen prompts, pressing PAGE to display the

GPS Information page.

3. The initialization process is automatic. It should

take the GPSMAP 76 no longer than ve

minutes to acquire enough satellite signals to

become operational. When the unit is able to

navigate, it displays either 2D GPS Location or

3D GPS Location in the Receiver Status eld.
