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
