4.6 eTrex does not display the local time in the 'SETUP' page

The eTrex operates on universal time (or GMT, Greenwich Mean Time ).

It is not necessary to have your local time displayed. Do not worry about a wrong

displayed time.

The geographic coordinates I get are outside the range indicated in

4.7.

the 'Country information' document :

1. Make sure the eTrex is configured as indicated in point 7 of the Quick Reference

Guide and redo the reading correctly.

2. If the eTrex is well configured, check that you have a clear view of the sky.

3. If this still does not work, move to a better place and take a new reading.

4. If the coordinates are still outside the range: change the batteries.

5. If all of that does not lead to a better result, contact your supervisor.
