Gps Connection Indicator; Gps Data Quality Indicator - Audiovox NVX430 User Manual

To identify satellites use their numbers also shown in the virtual sky. The more
satellites your GPS tracks (the green ones), the better your calculated position will
be.
Additional pieces of information on this screen are: current position in
latitude/longitude format, elevation, speed, date, time and calculated accuracy.
Note: Accuracy can be affected by several factors the GPS cannot take into account.
Use this accuracy information only as estimation.
There are two icons on the left to show the status of the GPS connection and the
quality of reception.

established yet, so you need to set it up by using the Detect or Config.
