Reference The Satellite Status screen visually displays the satellites being used and the strength of the received signal. Additionally, this screen displays the power source you are connected to and, if internal batteries, how much battery life is remaining. This is a very handy screen when you wish to view how well your MAP 330 is tracking satellites. Satellite Position Graph Position Mode Satellite Position Satellite Signal Strength Chart Power Source Battery Life Indicator Satellite Position Graph The two circles indicate satellite elevation as seen from your current position; the outer circle represents the horizon and the inner circle represents 45° from the horizon. The center of the circle is 90° from the horizon, or directly overhead. Satellite Signal Strength Chart Displays satellite signal strengths. Clear bar indicates that the MAP 330 is starting to get information from the satellite. Satellites that are being used to compute your position are shown with solid bars. The height of the bar indicates the relative signal strength; the higher the bar, the stronger the signal. 38 Power Source Indicates the source of power being used - POWER (Internal Battery) or POWER EXTERNAL. Position Mode 3D - position computed is 3-dimensional (elevation is being computed). 2D - position computed is 2-dimensional (elevation is not being computed). Blank - MAP 330 is not computing a position fix. Satellite Position Where the satellite is located relative to your position. Magellan MAP 330 GPS Receiver
