APPENDIX E Messages The GPS III+ uses an on-screen message indicator to alert you to important information. Whenever the message appears, press ENTER to acknowledge the message and return to the previous page you were viewing. Messages are provided for system status, waypoint/route editing, battery condition, etc. For your safety, pay careful attention to all messages. Alarm Clock-The alarm clock time that was set from the Alarms submenu has been reached. Approaching-You are one minute away from reaching a destination waypoint. Arrival at-You have reached your destination waypoint. Battery Power Low-The batteries are low and should be replaced. Data Transfer Complete-The unit has finished uploading or downloading information to the connected device. Degraded Accuracy-The unit's accuracy has been degraded beyond 500 meters due to poor satellite geometry or data quality. Check other navigational sources to verify the position indicated. Leg not Smoothed-The upcoming route leg is too short for smooth waypoint transitions. Memory Battery Power Low-The battery that sustains user memory is low and should be replaced by an authorized service center as soon as possible. Failure to do so may result in loss of stored data, including all 90 user waypoints and routes. Need Altitude for 2D Nav-The unit needs altitude input in order to start and/or continue 2D navigation. Need to Select Init Method-You must select an initialization method so the unit can locate satellites and obtain a fix. No Differential GPS Position-Not enough data is available to compute a DGPS position. No RTCM Input-Beacon receiver is improperly connected or baud rates do not match. Off Course Alarm-You are left or right of course, beyond the limits set on the Alarms submenu. Oscillator Needs Adjustment-The GPS III+ has detected excessive drift in its internal crystal oscillator which may result in longer acquisition time. The unit should be taken to an authorized GARMIN service center. Poor GPS Coverage-The unit cannot acquire the necessary number of satellites to compute a position. Try another location with a clearer view of the sky. Power Down and Re-init-The unit cannot calculate a position due to abnormal satellite conditions. Turn power off and use other means to verify the last position shown. Try the unit again later, possibly in a different location.
