6.1 Acquiring a GPS Satellite Fix

In order for the HEMA Navigator to find your current location, it requires a GPS
satellite fix.
To acquire a GPS fix, it is important that you are in an area that is open to the
sky, (not inside an enclosed building) and away from tall buildings and trees.
The initial fix may take anywhere from 2 to 5 minutes. This length of time to
obtain a fix will be greatly reduced the next time the navigation software is
started in a similar location.

When Ozi Explorer starts, the GPS satellite acquisition screen will appear,
displaying the GPS status and the number of currently visible satellites. Once a
fix is acquired, Ozi Explorer will bring up a map of your location. It is then
possible to select a more or less detailed map as required.
