The first time you turn on your GPSMAP 60CSx, the 

GPS receiver must collect satellite data and establish 

its current location. To ensure proper initialization, 

the GPSMAP 60CSx is shipped from the factory in 

AutoLocate mode, which allows the receiver to “find 

itself” anywhere on Earth. To receive satellite signals, 

you must be outdoors and have a clear view of the 

sky.

1.  Press and hold the 

POWER key to turn on the 

GPSMAP 60CSx.

2.  Hold the unit in front of you with the top tilted 

upward. While the GPS receiver is searching 

for the satellite signals, a “Locating Satellites” 

message is replaced by an “Acquiring 

Satellites” message until enough signals are 

acquired to fix its location. 

  When the receiver has signals from at least 

three satellites, the display at the top of the 

page changes to indicate position accuracy 

and location coordinates.

3.  Press and release the 

PAGE key until the Map 

Page appears. You are now ready to begin 

GPS aided navigation.

You can also observe a sky view array of the satellites 

overhead with your location centered in the array. The 

outer circle represents the horizon and the inner circle 

a position 45 degrees from the horizon. The numbers 

shown indicate the number assigned to each satellite. 

A bar graph at the bottom of the page shows the 

strength of signals from each satellite.
