Acquiring Satellite Signals
The process of acquiring satellite signals for the first
time is called initialization. Initializing allows the
iQue M5 to receive and store satellite information.
The process happens automatically when you open the
GPS antenna and may take several minutes. After you
initialize, the iQue M5 should acquire satellite signals
quickly each time you open the GPS antenna.
To acquire satellite signals, you must be outdoors
To acquire satellite signals, you must be outdoors
where you have a clear view of the sky. Avoid standing
near tall buildings or trees, as they may block satellite
signal reception.
To initialize your iQue M5:
1. Go outdoors where you have a clear view of
the sky.
2. Turn on the iQue M5 and open the GPS
antenna as explained on the previous page.
Use the stylus to tap
OK on the screen when
the warning appears.
3. Wait while the iQue M5 searches for satellite
signals.
While the iQue M5 is
searching, an “Acquiring
Satellites” message appears
at the top of QueMap.
When the iQue M5 acquires
enough satellite signals, the
message changes to
“2D GPS Location”
or “3D GPS Location.”
The System Status icon at
the top of the page also
changes:
