Connect the GPS. The Allegro must be outside in clear sky
conditions (this means free from tree foliage, buildings, power
lines, etc.) to receive a new GPS almanac. The receiver can take
up to 20 minutes to establish and receive the almanac.

Note: If your parameters do not match, some GPS programs (i.e.

ArcPad, TerraSync) produce an error message when attempting to activate
the GPS pod. This error means the communication parameters in the GPS
program do not match the GPS pod. Go back to the GPS programs set up
page and check to make sure those settings are the same settings as the
settings on your Allegro’s GPS Receiver Port Settings screen.
