While learning the basic operation of the GPS 76, let’s put the unit into 

Simulator Mode.  The Simulator Mode is great for practicing with the unit while 
inside and satellite signals are not available.  When the GPS 76 is in Simulator 
Mode, the GPS receiver is turned off (this will help conserve battery power) and 
the unit cannot be used for actual navigation.  

NOTE:  Do not try to navigate using the Simulator Mode.  While in the 
Simulator Mode, the GPS receiver is turned off.  Any Satellite Signal 
Strength Indicators displayed are only simulations and do not indicate 
the strength of actual satellite signals.  

Press the POWER Key to turn the unit on.  The Welcome Page will be 

displayed, press the PAGE Key twice to display the GPS Information Page. 

1.  With the GPS Information Page displayed, press the MENU Key.

2.  Using the ROCKER Key, highlight ‘Start Simulator’ then press the ENTER Key 

to accept your selection.

When the Simulator Mode is active, the message ‘Simulating GPS’ will be 

displayed along the top of the GPS Information Page.
