REFERENCE

This section explains the various functions of your receiver as
used in both the ORBCOMM and GPS modes and is organized in
this order. Functions are listed in order of usage and are
accompanied by screen representations and keystroke diagrams.

General Usage

The GSC 100 is used as an ORBCOMM Transceiver allowing
you to create, receive, forward and delete GlobalGrams that are
sent via ORBCOMM satellites from anywhere in the world. In
ORBCOMM mode, GlobalGrams can be created and sent, edited,
received, forwarded, copied, replied to and deleted. You will also
be able to attach important GPS position information to the
messages, including the time and date. It is also used as a GPS
Receiver computing position fixes, which are stored as named
waypoints and used to create routes. In GPS mode, waypoints
can be viewed, edited, and projected to create new waypoints, or
deleted. Routes can be created, activated, deactivated, reversed,
edited and cleared. This section covers these and other functions
which will enable you to take full advantage of your receiver's
dual capabilities.

Turning the Receiver ON

To turn the receiver "ON", press the POWER key. If
the batteries are installed correctly or the external
power is properly connected, the Magellan, Copyright
and ORBCOMM screens will quickly flash on the
screen, followed by the MAIN MENU.
If these screens do not appear, please check that the battery
installation and/or external power is properly connected and
turned "ON."
