When a Weather Alert tone is detected, the Rino 520/530 

automatically turns on the Weather Radio and broadcasts 

the Weather Alert if you are not actively transmitting or 

receiving on the radio. The volume changes to 3/4 the 

maximum when a Weather Alert is broadcast. Select 

Disable Weather Alert to turn off this feature.
To turn the weather radio off, press the 

Thumb Stick 

In when Use FRS/GMRS Radio is highlighted. This 

switches the Rino 520/530 back over to the FRS/GMRS 

radio operation. Weather Alert is disabled whenever the 

FRS/GMRS and Weather Radio is turned off.

Press the Thumb Stick In on either of these two options 

to toggle them from on to off. For example, to turn GPS 

Off, press the 

Thumb Stick In when Turn GPS Off is 

highlighted.

The Status Window on the bottom half of the Radio Page 

shows current GPS and radio status, and radio actions. As 

you operate the unit, the graphics change depending on 

what actions you are taking and the unit settings.

The GPS signal bars indicate the strength of satellite 

arrays overhead. More bars mean more satellites in view. 

As the unit collects satellite information, the satellite 

signal bars increase to indicate a 3D position fix. The 

more satellite signal bars, the better your position 

fix. Three or more green bars are required for GPS 

navigation.

As the radio transmits and receives, a variety of messages 

appear to indicate the type and status of the transmission 

or reception.
