GPS LED flashes while searching for the current location. When GPS position is confirmed the LED
will become solid.
Waiting until both HOME & GPS LED’s are solid is recommended as this will allow the unit to find the
selected satellite faster with more precise alignment accuracy.
If the searching operation starts before GPS becomes solid GPS LED will continue to flash even when
the satellite is already locked. In this case, the unit may readjust skew once its current location is
confirmed.
