Active WPT Can’t be Deletd—You have attempted to change the “active to”
or “active from” waypoint. Clear the active route or GOTO before making your
changes.
Accuracy has been Degraded—The accuracy of the GPS 38 has been degrad-
ed beyond 500 meters due to poor satellite geometry or data quality. You should
check other navigational sources to verify the position indicated.

memory.
Approaching—You are one minute away from reaching a destination waypoint.
Battery Power is Low—The batteries are low and should be replaced.
No DGPS Position—Not enough data is available to compute a DGPS posi-
tion.
No RTCM Input—Beacon receiver is improperly connected or baud rates do not
match.
Poor GPS Coverage—The GPS 38 cannot acquire the necessary number of
satellites to compute a position. Try another location with a clearer view of the
sky.
Power Down and Re-init—The GPS38 is not able to calculate a position due
to abnormal satellite conditions. Turn the unit off and verify the last position
shown by other means. Try the unit again later, possibly in a different location.
Read Only Mem has Failed—The permanent memory has failed and the unit
is not operable. Take your unit to an authorized GARMIN dealer for repairs.
Received an Invalid WPT—A waypoint was received during upload transfer
that has an invalid identifier.
Receiver has Failed—A failure in receiver hardware has been detected. If this
message persists, do not use the unit and take it to an authorized dealer for
repair.
Route is Full—You have attempted to add more than 30 waypoints to a route.
Route is not Empty—You have attempted to copy into a route already in use.
Route Waypoint Can’t be Deleted—The waypoint you are trying to delete is
part of a route. Delete the waypoint from the route before removing it from
memory.
The GPS 38 uses a flashing on-screen message indicator
to alert you to important information. Whenever the mes-
sage indicator appears, press
P to view the message page.
There are two types of messages: temporary alerts and con-
dition alerts. Temporary alerts are cleared from the message
page after viewing, while condition alerts remain until the
condition has been resolved. Pay careful attention to all mes-
sages for your own safety.
