Since the GPS 3000 XL receives information it needs from satellites orbiting the earth the antenna needs to have a relatively unobstructed view of the sky Blocked or Partially Blocked View of the Sky Physical obstructions will block sarellire signals from reaching the receiver If unable to get a position fix move the receiver so it has a clearer view of the sky Clear View of the Sky The receiver to the right has a clear view of the sky in all directions allowing it to choose from all of the satellites currently available If the view of the sky is poor the satellite signals can be blocked and the GPS 3000 XL may take longer to compute a position fix Holding the Receiver The GPS 3000 XL is designed to fit comfortably in your hand Hold the receiver with the antenna above your hand and the flat portion of the antenna towards the sky FS Do not place metallic decals or labels over the antenna portion of ay the receiver Drastic reductions in signal levels can occur This can dramatically decrease the GPS 3000 XLs signal reception Magellan GPS 3000 XL Satellite Receiver 2 10 To get a position fix you must be outside with a clear view of the sky and away from any large obstructions buildings large trees etc If che receiver is off press the ON OFF key to turn the receiver on or if you have just finished initializing the receiver press the NAV key until rhe screen show
