Viewing the Map Page

If a 2-D or 3-D fix is obtained, the Map Page displays the map data that is available for your current

GPS location. If a GPS fix cannot be obtained, the location of your last GPS fix displays on the map.

The color of the GPS arrow depends on your GPS signal.

• A flashing red arrow indicates that the Earthmate GPS PN-20 cannot obtain a GPS signal.
• A blue arrow indicates that the device is in Track Playback mode or Simulate Navigation mode.
• A yellow arrow indicates a 2-D fix.
• A green arrow indicates a 3-D fix.

Below the map are information fields. The information displayed in these fields varies based on the

selections you choose (for more information, see To Change the Information Fields on page 25).

The scale is located above the information fields. A north arrow is also available in the upper-right

corner of the screen; this is available only when Heading Up is selected as the map orientation (or

Course Up is selected when navigating). Note: Raster maps rotate in 90° headings.
