Using The Status Screen - Magellan GPS Tracker User Manual

Using the Status Screen

The Status screen will be the first screen displayed, after the Magellan screen,
once the unit is turned on. This screen gives you the general well-being of
your GPS Tracker by showing you satellite status and signal strengths, battery
life and temperature.

The satellite positions are displayed in the Satellite Position Graph with the
satellite signal strengths on the Satellite Signal Chart.
On the Satellite Position Graph and the Satellite Signal Chart, satellites
displayed in dark gray are for weak signal strengths, black for satellites of
strong signal strengths and light gray for no signal. On the Satellite Signal
Chart, satellites still receiving information will display an empty bar.
The bottom of the STATUS screen displays remaining battery power and
ambient temperature of the receiver. Power shown is the estimated battery
life when the receiver is operating on battery power.
Once the receiver has computed a position fix, the STATUS screen will be
replaced by the POSITION screen.
