GETTING STARTED
Page Sequence/Position Page
The satellite status page is one of five main pages used in the GPSMAP 135
Sounder’s system. All five pages are linked together in a simple chain, which
allows you to scroll through the pages in either direction using the
J
and
Q
keys. To continue the tour, let’s move on to the next page, the position page.
To scroll to the next page in sequence:
1. Press the
J
key.
The GPSMAP 135 Sounder’s position page shows where you are, what direc-
tion you’re heading and how fast you’re going. The compass tape at the top of the
page indicates the direction you’re moving. The four user-selectable data fields
below the compass tape show your current course and speed over ground, along
with a resettable trip odometer and depth display. Your current latitude and longi-
tude, along with a 12/24-hour clock, appear at the bottom of the page.
Now that you’ve seen how the status and position pages can be used to monitor
satellite acquisition and your present position, let’s take a minute to learn how to
mark and store our present position as a waypoint. (Since we’re in simulator
mode, the present position displayed will be the last position calculated by the
receiver, which should be the spot where you’ve initialized the unit.) This will also
give you an opportunity to see how the GPSMAP 135 Sounder’s
R
keypad and
T
key are used for data entry.
