Chapter 3 Using GPS Navigation
Introduction
The MC75 includes Global Positioning System (GPS) technology using the SiRF III chipset. GPS technology is
based on a worldwide system of GPS satellites orbiting the earth that continuously transmit digital radio signals.
These radio signals contain data on the satellites’ locations and their exact clock time and are used to determine
your location on the earth.
