8.5 CHECKING GPS CONNECTIONS

After connections have been made between the
GX1100S and the GPS, a small satellite icon will ap-
pear on the top right corner of the display, and dis-
plays your current location (Latitude/Longitude) on the
display.
If there is a problem with the NMEA input from a GPS, the GPS icon will
blink continuously until the connection is corrected.
