4.1.2 GPS MAP Screen

For best results in achieving a satellite lock;The
Active 20 should be pointed at clear sky. The unit
can also acquire a lock through glass, i.e. windows/
car windshield.
Getting a GPS whilst moving may take longer. From
a cold start, very large MapCard may also slow the
GPS lock time slightly.
From start-up, the progress of the GPS lock can
be seen on the GPS STATUS screen, using the

A successful satellite lock (a 'fix') is indicated at the
top left of the screen by the red cross changing to a
green or blue signal icon. The number of green or
blue crescents denotes the signal strength. A weak
lock is indicated by a single crescent plus a '2D'
caption.
The unit is EGNOS/WAAS enabled. This means
users in Europe and North America are able to
benefit from 'differential' GPS when one of the

Your position is shown as a blue dot in
the centre of the screen. Once moving, a
small pointer appears on the blue circle,
indicating the current direction of travel. As
you move, a snail trail of red dots is laid
down, indicating the path you have taken, as
long as you have started the trip log. To
change the red trail dot size may changed in
the Settings Menu.
The Active 20 logs your position once every
second. The rate at which red dots are
displayed depends on the map scale and
the speed of travel. Dots are laid down so
an appropriate distance is rendered between
them to create a clear track. A power saving
