Starting Up 11 Using the eXplorist for the First Time Turn the eXplorist on. Press the Power button. When the Startup screen is displayed, press ENTER. Select Language. When you turn on the eXplorist for the first time, you are given the option of selecting one of the ten languages that can be used. You can change the language selection at any time by accessing Menu > Preferences > Languages. Tip: If you accidentally change the language but you can't read the text and need to change it back, press the NAV button until the Satellite Status screen is displayed. Press MENU. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight the fourth line and press ENTER. Use the Arrow joystick to highlight the fifth line and press ENTER. The Language Select screen will be displayed. Use arrow joystick to move the highlight up and down. Press ENTER to accept Read Warning. When you agree to the warning statement, press ENTER to continue. Press ENTER to continue Compute Initial Position. For this operation, it is best if you are outside and have a clear, unobstructed view of the sky. Without a clear view, this will take much longer and could result in the eXplorist being unable to compute the initial position automatically. The eXplorist begins to compute your initial position. This may take a few minutes while it is doing a cold start. Normally, when you first turn the eXplorist on it will compute your position in a matter of seconds when able to do a warm start. (An explanation of cold start vs. warm start is provided following this section.) The Satellite Status screen is displayed, showing you the progress of the collection of satellite data. Satellite Status screen shows how many satellites are being tracked, as well as the relative strength of the signal.
