Additional pieces of information on this screen are: current position in

latitude/longitude format, elevation, speed, date, time and calculated accuracy.

Note: Accuracy can be affected by several factors the GPS cannot take into account.

Use this accuracy information only as estimation.

There are two icons on the left to show the status of the GPS connection and the

quality of reception.

4.3.2 GPS connection indicator

In the middle to the left there is a lamp similar to the ones used for switches. This

one has more colors and represents more values:

• a fast blinking green lamp means that there is communication with the GPS

and data is being received,

• other colors may not appear with a built-in GPS. Should any of

these appear, this means a faulty operation of your device.

4.3.3 GPS data quality indicator

In the top left corner there is a satellite dish to show the quality of the GPS position.

Different colors represent different signal quality:

• black with a red cross means there is no connection with the GPS device.

This should never be the case if your device has a built-in GPS.

• red means the GPS is connected but no GPS position is available,

• yellow means 2D reception. A GPS position has been acquired, MioMap is

ready for navigation, but the GPS is using enough satellites for calculating the

horizontal position only. Elevation data is not provided, and the position error may

be significant.

• green means 3D reception. The GPS receiver has enough satellites to

calculate altitude. Position is generally correct (yet it can still be inaccurate due to

different environmental factors). MioMap is ready for navigation.
