In the menu used for entering the geographical latitude, enter the value rounded to one decimal place (50.2).

The decimal value of the degrees longitude is calculated in the same way.

10.3 Setting a satellite position

For each satellite position to be added, consecutively work through Points 10.3.1 to 10.3.3. When programming satellite positions, we recommend you start with the satellite that has the most Easterly orbital position. Continue by adding the other satellites, working your way through in a Westerly direction, until you have reached the satellite with the most Westerly orbital position. Your digital receiver is pre-programmed at the factory for the most popular satellite positions. In addition, you can configure user-defined satellite positions (User 1 to User 13) for any orbital position desired.
