Turning On the 276C Plus

The first time you turn on your new 276C Plus, the receiver
must collect satellite data and establish its present position. To
ensure proper initialization, the 276C Plus is shipped from the
factory in AutoLocate mode, which allows the receiver to "find
itself" anywhere in the world. Before you turn on the unit to start
initialization, be sure that the antenna is rotated up as shown on page
1, and that it has a clear and unobstructed view of the sky to receive
satellite signals.
To turn on and off the 276C Plus:
1. Press and hold the red POWER key. When the unit powers
on, a tone sounds and the Warning page displays.
2. Read and be sure you understand the warning. If you have
external devices connected, they are listed here. Press
ENTER to continue.
