The Satellites Page displays GPS and satellite information, 

time, and elevation.

Both the satellite constellation and the satellite signal 

graph display visible satellites and their identifying numbers. 

The satellite constellation depicts each satellite’s position 

and the signal graph bars indicate the strength of each 

satellite signal.

The icons in the satellite constellation and the bars in the 

signal graph are color-coded based on the quality of the 

data they are transmitting:

 Gray–Satellites have not been located but they are 

shown in the constellation because they appear in the 

PN-60’s almanac data.

 Red–The receiver is tracking the satellite, but it is not 

using it to navigate.

 Yellow–The receiver is tracking the satellite, predicted 

ephemeris data is available when a 3-D fi x has not 

been obtained, and the satellite is being used for 

navigation. 

 Green–The receiver is tracking the satellite, 

ephemeris data is available, and the satellite is being 

used for navigation.

 Blue–The receiver is tracking the satellite, ephemeris 

data is available, the satellite is being used for 

navigation, and WAAS corrections are available.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a system of 

satellites that orbit the earth to provide position and 

navigation information. The Wide Area Augmentation 

System (WAAS) is system of satellites and ground
