its correct operation.
The initialisation process is finished when the reception of more
than 3 satellites is assured after about 20 seconds.
Note: This initialisation process must be carried out only once.
The other times, the GPS receiver will be ready within about one
minute.
Note: When the GPS receiver is connected to the power supply
for the first time, leave it connected for about 2 hours in order to
charge its battery.
Note: A new initialisation may become necessary when the GPS
receiver has not been in use. In this case, the initialisation
process would take about 10 minutes.
Caution: Disconnect the receiver from the power supply when
you are leaving the car parked for a longer period. Failure to do
so might result in a flat battery as the receiver consumes
electricity permanently.
