  • Page 24 Global satellite navigation is an exciting technology, providing enhanced productivity and accuracy in a vast number of industries. It adds a new level of enjoyment and safety to a wide range of navigation, sports, and recreational activities. A Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is a network of satellites that transmit high-frequency radio signals containing time and distance data that can be picked up by a receiver, allowing users to pinpoint their precise locations anywhere around the globe.
  • Page 25 By comparing the time the signals were transmitted from the satellites and the time they were recorded, the receiver calculates how far away each satellite is. The distance of the receiver from three or more satellites reveals its position on the surface of the planet. With these distance measurements, the receiver might also calculate speed, bearing, trip time, distance to destination, altitude, and more.
  • Page 26 Thales Navigation, maker of Magellan GPS products, is not a cartography company. We do not create the maps that are used on our GPS devices. We seek to acquire map data from the best public and private sources available at the time of publication. Thales Navigation licenses* topographical maps, roadmaps, marine charts and points of interest (POI) data from commercial and governmental cartographic sources that provide raw map data.
  • Page 27 2.5 Signal Acquisition Time The first time you use your Magellan Maestro 4000/4040/4050, or if you travel over 500 miles with it off, there may be a delay in receiving the initial satellite fix; depending on your position and the position of the satellites, this could take 15 minutes or more.
