Informational Picture - Overview
The Informational Picture on the bottom half of screen
features Garmin’s Mr. Mark Waypoint to show current
GPS & radio status and radio actions. As you operate the
unit, the graphics will change depending on what actions
you are taking or the unit settings.
Four satellites are shown on at the top of the picture
along with descriptive text to indicate GPS reception
status. As the unit collects satellite information, the satel-
lite symbols will fl ash alternately until all four are steady
indicating a 3D position fi x. The more satellites that are
steady, the better your position fi x.
As radio signals come in, signal wave symbols will
display to the left of Mark Waypoint. Fragmented (or
broken) signal symbols are shown to indicate activity on
that channel. Audio remains muted because the incoming
signal does not match the squelch code your unit is set to.
The Mark Waypoint fi gure will display several dif-
ferent icons, depending on what you are doing. A radio
in Mark’s hand indicates the radio is ready to use. A fl ag
in his other hand means the unit is ready to transmit its
position (GPS must be On to use this feature.) As you
transmit, you will see radio waves around Mark’s radio.
When your peer-to-peer transmission is sent, Mark will
raise the fl ag in his hand. As positions are received, a fl ag
will briefl y appear on top of the hill to the left.
