To get to the Sonar Page: Press the PAGES key, then use → or ← to select SONAR. (Clear the Pages Menu by pressing EXIT.)

Satellite Status Page

The Satellite Status Page, shown in the following images, provides de- tailed information on the status of the unit's satellite lock-on and posi- tion acquisition. To get to the Satellite Status Page: Press the PAGES key, then use → or ← to select STAT. (Clear the Pages Menu by pressing EXIT.)

No matter what Page you are on, a flashing current position indica- tor/question mark symbol and flashing GPS data displays indicate that satellite lock has been lost and there is no position confirmed. The Sat- ellite Status Page shows you the quality and accuracy of the current satellite lock-on and position calculation.
