GPS Status

Signals are transmitted by Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites orbiting the Earth. The GPS Status screen
provides a visual representation of the information being received.

Latitude and longitude are displayed, along with ground speed, the heading in degrees and a north-pointing
compass. The strength of each satellite is displayed on a bar chart.

For more information on GPS, see "How do I navigate with GPS?" on page 22.

The satellites available from your current position are shown as grey, red and green coloured bars:
