GETTING STARTED > ACQUIRING SATELLITE SIGNALS Acquiring Satellite Signals The process of acquiring satellite signals for the first time is called initialization. Initializing allows the iQue M5 to receive and store satellite information. The process happens automatically when you open the GPS antenna and may take several minutes. After you initialize, the iQue M5 should acquire satellite signals quickly each time you open the GPS antenna. To acquire satellite signals, you must be outdoors where you have a clear view of the sky. Avoid standing near tall buildings or trees, as they may block satellite signal reception. To initialize your iQue M5: 1. Go outdoors where you have a clear view of the sky. 2. Turn on the iQue M5 and open the GPS antenna as explained on the previous page. Use the stylus to tap OK on the screen when the warning appears. 3. Wait while the iQue M5 searches for satellite signals. 2 While the iQue M5 is searching, an "Acquiring Satellites" message appears at the top of QueMap. When the iQue M5 acquires enough satellite signals, the message changes to "2D GPS Location" or "3D GPS Location." The System Status icon at the top of the page also changes: GPS off GPS on, searching GPS on, location known GPS on, location known, strong signal iQue M5 Que Applications Guide
