As GPS units are used, data is gathered which
helps them acquire satellites quickly at the start of each use. If a device is
used daily it should be able to acquire satellites in a minute or less. Using a
GPS device while it is outdoors with a clear view of the entire sky is the
ideal condition for acquiring satellites. Please know that there can be several
different factors that may cause a GPS unit to not acquire satellites:
If your unit is still having trouble acquiring
satellites, please ensure that it has the latest version of operating software
by using our WebUpdater program. Once
your unit is updated please allow the unit to acquire satellites outdoors in a
stationary position with a clear view of the sky.
