If no position updates from the beacon are received (beacon not powered, discharged battery or
searching the GPS signal), the model GPS icon will be displayed as follows:
• solid with an exclamation mark next to it ʘ that means that the handheld unit is pointing in
an outdated position (the latest position received from the same beacon)
• flashing with a cross on it ʘ that means that the handheld unit has never received position
information from that beacon. In this case no distance is shown and the arrow just aims at the
magnetic North direction
It is highly recommended that the receiver is turned on and displays the solid model GPS icon
ʘ before launching the model
How to hold the receiver during tracking
Hold the receiver horizontally when retrieving the model. If the tilt angle of the receiver exceeds
approx. 40 degrees, a warning message is displayed on the lcd.
Hold the receiver vertically and lift your arm to improve the reception of the radio signal from the
beacon when it is extremely far away and it is difficult to get position updates.
