In the menu used to enter the geographical latitude you would thus enter the value rounded to one decimal place (50.2).

The decimal value of the degrees longitude will be calculated in the same manner.

9.3 Setting a satellite position

For each satellite position to be entered, work through Points 9.3.1 to

9.3.3.When programming satellite positions, we recommend that you begin with the satellite in the most easterly position, then work your way through all the remaining positions in a westerly direction, finis- hing off with the most extreme westerly satellite position. Your digital receiver is pre-programmed at the factory for the most commonly used satellite positions. In addition, you can configure user-defined satellite positions (User 1 to User 14) for every possible orbital position.
