NOTE:

One of the data display options for the Satellite Status page is "Po-

sition Error" (horizontal position error), which can appear in one of

the page's data boxes. If you turn on Position Error, it will show

you the expected error from a benchmark location. In other words,

if the Position Error box shows 50 feet, then the position shown by

the unit is estimated to be within 50 feet of the actual location.
This also gives you an indicator of the fix quality the unit currently

has. The smaller the position error number, the better (and more ac-

curate) the fix is. If the position error flashes dashes, then the unit

hasn't locked onto the satellites, and the number shown isn't valid.

(For details, see the Customize Page Displays entry in Sec. 8.)

The Satellite Status Page has its own menu, which is used for setting

various options. (Options and setup are discussed in Sec. 8). To access

the Satellite Status Page Menu, from the Status Page, press

row. The arrow pointing down at the top of the compass rose indicates

the current track (direction of travel) you are taking.
