To check how many satellites your device has found, and
whether your device is receiving satellite signals, select

status.
If your device has found satellites, a bar for each satellite
is shown in the satellite info view. The longer the bar, the
stronger the satellite signal. When your device has
received enough data from the satellite signal to calculate
your location, the bar color changes.
To view the positions of found satellites, select
view.
Initially your device must receive signals from at least four
satellites to be able to calculate the coordinates of your
location. When the initial calculation has been made, it
may be possible to continue calculating the coordinates of
your location with three satellites. However, the accuracy
is generally better when more satellites are found.
If no satellite signal can be found, consider the following:
If you are indoors, go outdoors to receive a better

signal.
If you are outdoors, move to a more open space.
