Gps Diagnostic View - Humminbird HELIX 5 SI GPS Operation Manual

NOTE: The speed accessory will be detected only if the paddlewheel has moved since your Fishfinder
was powered up.
GPS Diagnostic View shows a sky chart and numerical data from the GPS receiver. The sky chart
shows the location of each visible GPS satellite with its satellite number and a signal strength bar.
A dark gray bar indicates that the satellite is being used to determine your current position. A light
gray bar indicates that the satellite is being monitored, but is not yet being used.
This view also reports the current position, local time and date, and other numeric information.
The current GPS Fix Type is reported as No Fix, 2D Fix, 3D Fix, or Enhanced. An Enhanced fix has
been augmented using information from WAAS, EGNOS, or MSAS. A 3D or Enhanced Fix is
required for navigation. HDOP (the Horizontal Dilution of Precision) is a GPS system parameter
which depends on the current satellite configuration. HDOP is used to calculate the Estimated
Position Error.
