LATITUDE, LONGITUDE
The default latitude and longitude position is 
San Francisco, USA (38.00.000’N, 
123.00.000’W). When the unit is turned on 
for the first time it begins searching for its 
actual position. To lessen the time required 
to find position, you may enter your position 
manually. To switch from North to South and 
vice versa, use the N<-->S soft key, and to 
switch from West to East and vice versa, use 
the W<-->E soft key. Finally, press the 
ENTER soft key or the [ENTER] key. 
 
ANT. HEIGHT
Enter the height of the antenna unit above 
sea surface. For further details refer to the 
Installation Manual. 
 
FIX MODE
You can choose the position-fixing mode 
from 2D or 2D/3D. 2D requires three 
satellites to fix position; 2D/3D requires three 
or four satellites, whichever is available.
