Overview
Turning on the Foretrex 101
After you have placed the batteries in the Foretrex 101, it is ready for use. Allow the
Foretrex 101 time to track satellites and determine your position the fi rst time you use it.
Upon startup, the GPS signal bar appears. As the Foretrex 101 locates more satellites and
the signal strength increases, the bar moves to the right. Estimated GPS accuracy displays
underneath the GPS signal bar. Refer to the previous page for battery installation informa-
tion.
To turn on the Foretrex 101:
1. Press and hold the POWER button until the Satellite Page is displayed, then release.
2. Your Foretrex 101 automatically begins acquiring satellites. The GPS signal bar and
accuracy fi elds are shown on the Satellite Page as well as an image that is acquiring
satellites. The satellite dish icon on the left side of the screen fl ashes while the Foretrex
101 determines your location.
3. Leave the Foretrex 101 with a clear view of the sky for 15–30 minutes initially. After
the fi rst use, it should only take less than a couple minutes to acquire satellites.
4. When the Foretrex 101 acquires enough satellite signals to determine your location, the
satellite dish icon on the left side of the screen stops fl ashing.
NOTE: If you have moved over 500 miles from the location you last used your
Foretrex 101 unit, or you have not used your Foretrex 101 in more than one
month, it may take 15 to 30 minutes to determine your location.
