∫About the Icon indicating positioning status

Positioning is performed by this unit when radio waves from 3 or more GPS satellites are received.

•The bar moves up the scale according to the number of GPS satellites from which signals are being received.

When the bar has filled the scale and positioning has been successful, the indicator goes blue. [ ]: The acquiring of the latitude/longitude is complete.

[ ]: The searching for the location name is complete.

•Even when reception is good, there may be times when positioning is not possible due to the status of the GPS satellites. In this case, we recommend performing [Repositioning] (P125).
