Unit Operation Unit Operation > Radio Page Radio Page The Radio Page is the first of the default Main Pages. This page provides the user interface for FRS (Family Radio Service) and GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) radio operations. Garmin Rino units work with third party FRS/GMRS radios using standard FRS/GMRS frequencies. To take advantage of all of the Rino features, communication with other Rinos is necessary. The Radio Page also provides access to the Weather Radio (available in Rino 530 only), which provides a constant update of current weather conditions by receiving NOAA weather broadcasts for your area. The Weather Alert feature further enhances the Weather Radio by automatically notifying you of any weather alerts, even when the Weather Radio is not is use and the FRS/ GMRS radio is not transmitting or receiving an audio transmission. These features are helpful while outdoors or planning any trips or activities. Rino® 520/530 Owner's Manual Radio Page Initializing the Rino 520/530 To take full advantage of the Rino 520/530 features, the GPS receiver must be initialized. The initialization process allows the Rino 520/530 to receive and store satellite information and begin using the satellites for navigation. Initialization is automatic and should only take a few minutes. If this is the first time the unit is used or if you have moved more than 600 miles from your last used location, initialization may take up to 5 minutes.
