    Here's how: The manual is organized into six sections. Section 1 is an introduction to the Atlas and to GPS. It tells you the basics you need to know before you can make Atlas look around and tell you where you are.
  • Page 8 Mode menus and submenus, the rest of the section contains all of Atlas's command functions, organized in alphabetical order. When you come to a menu command on the Atlas screen, you can look it up in the manual by skimming over the table of contents, just flipping through Section 3 or scanning through the command portion of Section 4.

  • Page 10: How Atlas Works

    First, think of your Atlas as a small but powerful computer. (But don't worry — we made Atlas so easy to use, you don't need to be a computer expert to find your way!) The unit includes a keypad and a screen with menus so you can tell Atlas what to do.

  • Page 11: Introduction To Gps And Waas

    MapCreate maps. Introduction to GPS and WAAS Well, now you know the basics of how Atlas does its work. You might be ready to jump ahead to Section 2, Installation & Accessories, on page 15, so you can install the batteries.
  • Page 12 This Manual" on page 14. But, if you want to understand the current state of satellite navigation, look over this segment describing how GPS and its new companion WAAS work together to get you where you're going. The Global Positioning System (GPS) was launched July 17, 1995 by the United States Department of Defense.
  • Page 13 Like most GPS receivers, Atlas doesn’t have a magnetic compass or any other navigation aid built inside. It relies solely on the signals from the satellites to calculate a position. Speed, direction of travel, and distance are all calculated from position information. Therefore, in order for Atlas to determine direction of travel, you must be moving and the faster, the better.

  • Page 14: How To Use This Manual: Text Conventions

    Instructions = Menu Sequences Most functions you perform with Atlas are described as a sequence of keystrokes and selecting menu commands. We've written them in a condensed manner for quick and easy reading.

  • Page 15: Section 2: Installation & Accessories

    Installation & Accessories Power The Atlas operates from AA batteries or on 3 volts DC using an optional external power cable with a cigarette lighter adapter. If the power cable is used, the Atlas automatically switches to it if the external power is greater than the battery voltage.
  • Page 16 Remove Atlas battery cover. Install the batteries according to the decal in the battery compartment, which shows the correct polarity. Point the positive pole of the upper battery to the left; point the positive pole of the bottom battery to the right.

  • Page 17: Cigarette Lighter External Power Cable Installation

    Attach external power cable to Atlas. MMC or SDC Memory Card Installation Your Atlas uses a MultiMedia Card (MMC) to store information, such as custom maps, waypoints and other GPS data. The unit can also use Secure Digital Cards (SD card or SDC) to store information.
  • Page 18 MMC. 4. Drag the MMC from the slot into the battery compartment. 5. Hold Atlas face up and give it a shake to dump the MMC into your hand or onto a work surface.

  • Page 19: External Antenna Installation

    External Antenna A GPS antenna requires a clear view of the sky for optimum reception. Inside a vehicle, your Atlas can sometimes maintain “satellite lock” while sitting on the seat beside you, but we don't recommend this for optimum performance.

    Advanced Mode work. Before you turn on Atlas and find where you are, it's a good idea to learn about the different keys, the three Page screens and how they all work together. But, if you just can't wait to get outside, grab the batteries and turn to the one-page Quick Reference on page 29.

  • Page 22: Power/Lights On And Off

    The tutorial lessons in this section will deal only with functions, the basic commands that make Atlas do something. Atlas will work fine for these lessons right out of the box with the factory default settings.

  • Page 23: Satellite Status Page

    Satellite Status Page This Page, shown on page 22, provides detailed information on the status of Atlas's satellite lock-on and position acquisition. No matter what page you are on, a flashing current position indicator/question mark symbol and flashing GPS data displays indicate that satellite lock has been lost and there is no position confirmed.

  • Page 24: Navigation Page

    The GPS receiver is tracking satellites that are in bold type. The receiver hasn't locked onto a satellite if the number is grayed out, therefore it isn't being used to solve the position.
  • Page 25 Navigation Page, recording a trail, traveling due north. Page looks like this when Atlas is not navigating to a waypoint , following a route, or backtracking a trail. When navigating to a waypoint, the Navigation screen looks like the one shown on page 26.

Over Zoomed means you have reached the detail limits in an area covered only by the basic background map. Zooming in any closer will reveal no more map details because a high-detail custom map has not been loaded on the MMC for this area.
  • Page 28 The following page contains a 12-step quick reference for Easy Mode operation. If you don't want to carry the manual with you as you practice with Atlas, you might consider photocopying this quick reference page and tucking it into your pocket.
