Satellite tracking status display
When the system is turned on for the first time it is in the “cold-start” state, which
means there is no satellite data (almanac data) stored. In this condition it takes
about 12 minutes to find heading. When heading is found the display shows
“OK.” The timer at the top left corner of the screen shows time since power on. If
OK is not displayed within 30 minutes after turning on the power, the antenna
mounting location may not be suitable. Suspect that the number of satellites in
view is less than five due to signal blockage. (For the open-type antenna, loosen
the nut at the center of the antenna unit to adjust antenna orientation.) Resolve
the problem and then recheck tracking status.
If the heading error is between 5° and 10°, adjust orientation of the antenna unit,
while watching the heading indication on the display.
