REFERENCE

When the receiver has
been moved over 500
miles from the last known
position, it can be reini-
tialized from the map or
by entering coordinates.
This helps the GPSMAP
195 look for the correct
satellites.

For planning, learning, or
just plain fun, the simula-
tor mode can be easily
accessed from the status
page options.
