Novice question (satellites screen)

 

Ok, here is a novice question, what is that little round circle with a red dot in the middle where you view the satellites? I get the moon and the sun, but dont get what the circle with the red dot is.

Doesn't that represent the GPS accuracy?

According to my n660's Owners Manual it represents "Direction of Travel"

Real novice question

OK... I know I've seen it, and so I know it's in there somewhere, but how the heck do I access the satellite screen? I've pressed every button, every corner of the screen and it seems every menu and feature as well... I'm still missing it. Where am I going wrong?

It depends on which model GPS you have.

Thanks for the response. The Nuvi 350 is the one I'm using most these days. My G510 is not a problem.

1. Make sure the antenna is up.
2. Turn on the GPS.
3. In the upper left corner you will see the signal strength indicator. Press it and you should see the satellite page.
