ACQUIRING SATELLITES

When the receiver is in the process of acquiring enough satellite signals for
navigation, the receiver uses satellite orbital data (collected continuously from the
satellites) and last known position to determine the satellites that should be in view.
'Acquiring Satellites' is indicated as the solution until a sufficient number of satellites
have been acquired for computing a solution.
When the receiver is in the process of acquiring a 3D differential GPS solution, '3D
GPS Location' is indicated as the solution until the 3D differential fix has finished
acquisition.
