Initialize GPS

In simulator mode, the Initialize GPS command makes the unit operate
as if it is sitting someplace other than its actual location. So you and
your unit could be located in Kansas City, but practice navigating in the
ocean off Islamorada, Florida.

NOTE:

Remember: if you want to run a simulation in a place other than
your current location, you first must Initialize the GPS, then turn
on the GPS Simulator.

lite lock-on or a new simulator location.
