EZinit Option Prompt
The Satellite Page also provides access to the EZ
init
prompt whenever a position fix has not been calculated.
(The unit must be in searching, AutoLocate, acquiring,
simulator, or poor coverage mode.) This allows you to
reinitialize the unit (see Appendix A), and is useful if
you have traveled over 500 miles with the receiver off
and must initialize your new position. (The EZ
init
prompt will automatically appear if the receiver needs
to be initialized. The prompt may also appear during
normal use if the antenna is blocked from receiving
satellite signals.
Note: The GPS 126/128 features an internal lithium
battery that will maintain the unit’s memory when the
receiver is not running.
Memory Erase Function
You may erase the GPS 126/128’s memory in four
quick steps. This will cause all stored data to be deleted,
including routes, waypoints, and the track log.
To erase all stored data:
1. Ensure that the GPS 126/128 is turned off.
2. While holding down the
M
key, press the
P
key
to turn the unit on. After the unit turns on, release the
keys. A warning message will appear with “Yes?”
highlighted, and ask you to confirm your selection.
3. If you do not wish to erase all stored data, press
R
and
F
to cancel the emergency erase.
4. If you do wish to complete the emergency erase, press
F
to confirm.
Position Page
The second page in the GPS 126/128’s main page
sequence is the Position Page. This page shows you
where you are, what direction you’re heading, and how
fast you’re going. The Position Page is most useful when
you are traveling without an active destination way-
point. The graphic compass tape across the top of the
page indicates the direction you’re heading (only while
you’re moving).
