While learning the basic operation of the GPS 76, let' s put the unit into
Simulator Mode. The Simulator Mode is great for practicing with the unit while
inside and satellite signals are not available. When the GPS 76 is in Simulator
Mode, the GPS receiver is turned off (this will help conserve battery power) and
the unit cannot be used for actual navigation.
