Information Information About Satellite Navigation Global satellite navigation is an exciting technology, providing enhanced productivity and accuracy in a vast number of industries. It adds a new level of enjoyment and safety to a wide range of navigation, sports, and recreational activities.
Information increase the accuracy of satellite navigation include the use of DGPS (Differential Global-Positioning System); ground relay stations, set at known positions, transmit corrected satellite-navigation signals. Various methods and applications of DGPS can increase satellite navigation accuracy from a few meters to within a few millimeters. Using DGPS requires a differential-beacon receiver and antennae in addition to a satellite-navigation device.

Installation Installation Installation Take care when mounting the Magellan RoadMate in your vehicle, whether using the windshield mount or another mount, that it does not obstruct the driver’s view of the road. Make sure that the placement of the Magellan RoadMate and cable does not interfere with the operation of vehicle safety devices, such as air bags. You assume the risks associated with damage to your vehicle or your vehicle’s occupants as a result of how you choose to mount the Magellan RoadMate.
Installation Rotate the antenna upward. Installation is complete. You are ready to turn the Magellan RoadMate on and go. Installing the External Antenna The external antenna (not included) provides faster satellite fix times and greater signal strength. Because it is mounted outside of the vehicle, it is not affected by reflective coatings on windows and has an unobstructed line of sight to the satellites. Remove the standard antenna by rotating it completely upward.
Installation Route the antenna cable along the weatherstripping of the door and through the vehicle interior so it such a way that it does not interfere with the operation of the vehicle. Plug the end of the external antenna into the socket on the back of the unit. Replace the unit onto the mount in your vehicle. There is no special settings to make to the unit in order to use the external antenna. Turn the unit on and operate normally.
Basic Operation Basic Operation Turning the Magellan RoadMate On Press the Power button. The Power button is located on the left side of the unit. See “Front View” on page 5 for button locations.
