Restarting GPS (Initializing)
When To Restart GPS: Your eXplorist always starts looking for
satellites assuming it is in the same location as when it was turned
off. Traveling more than 500 miles with your eXplorist receiver
turned off may cause delays in position computation. Restarting
GPS is not mandatory but will decrease the time taken to compute
your position following such a move.
Changing the Active Setup
Whenever you save a POI, create a route, geocache points or the
maps you wish to access (basemap or detail map), your eXplorist
will automatically take you to the preassigned default folder.
This is fine for normal operation but if you want to access a
different folder multiple times you may find it easier to set a
personal default folder. For example, you may have created a file
named Yosemite for a camping trip you are on. For this trip every
POI you save or retrieve will come from the Yosemite file and it is
faster to set this file as your default.

of file desired and

set as the default
and press Enter.
