Thelonger the bar, thestronger the satellitesignal. When your device has received enough datafrom the satellite signal to calculate your location, thebar color changes.To view the positions of found satellites, select Chg.view.Initially your device must receive signals from at leastfour satellites to be able to calculate the coordinatesof your location. When the initial calculation has beenmade, it may be possible to continue calculating thecoordinates of your location with three satellites.However, the accuracy is generally better when moresatellites are found.If no satellite signal can be found, consider thefollowing:88 Positioning (GPS)
