GPS Mode Select from the following modes: Normal: The GPS receiver is always 'ON' when it's in 'NORMAL' mode. The normal mode is more responsive to sudden turns or change of speed/acceleration. WAAS: The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) capability produces a more accurate position fix. When enabled, the unit searches for a WAAS satellite near your location and then receives data for correcting differentials in the GPS satellite signals and the WAAS satellite numbers (beginning at No. 33 or above) display on the Satellite Page. It is helpful to orient the unit antenna toward the WAAS satellite shown in the skyview. To learn more about the WAAS System, access the Federal Aviation Administration Web site at http://gps.faa.gov. Battery Save: When the Foretrex 201 is in 'BATTERY SAVE' mode, the GPS receiver turns on and off alternatively to conserve power. Demo: The 'DEMO' mode is designed for dealers to show the features and functions of the Foretrex 201 to potential customers inside a closed building where satellite reception is not possible. There is no navigation possible in 'DEMO' mode. If you select the 'DEMO' mode, a window displays at the bottom of the screen asking you to verify that you want to turn the GPS off (the unit will stop tracking satellites, but not power off). Off: To turn the GPS receiver off, select 'OFF' for the 'GPS MODE' setting. Owner Info Enter up to three lines of owner information, such as your contact information in case your unit is lost. You can select to display the information at power up or not display the information at power up.
