Clearing the NVRAM
The receiver’s Non-Volatile Random Access Memory (NVRAM)
holds data required for satellite tracking, such as ephemeris data and
receiver position. The NVRAM also keeps the current receiver’s
settings, such as active antenna input, elevation masks and recording
interval, and information about the receiver’s internal file system.
There are times when clearing the NVRAM can eliminate
communication or tracking problems. Clearing the NVRAM in your
receiver can be interpreted as a “soft boot” in your computer.
After clearing the NVRAM, your receiver will require some time to
collect new ephemerides and almanacs (around 15 minutes).
Clearing the NVRAM of your receiver will not delete any files
already recorded in your receiver’s memory; however, it will reset
your receiver to factory default values.
In addition, the NVRAM keeps information about the receiver file
system. Note that after clearing the NVRAM, the receiver's STAT
LED will flash orange for a few seconds indicating that the receiver is
scanning and checking the file system.
