To remove the battery compartment, loosen the retaining screw at the bottom of the battery compartment. The battery compartment will come free from the SporTrak and you can easily slide it out. Install two AA batteries, observing the correct polarity. Slide the battery compartment back into the SporTrak and tighten (but not overtighten) the retaining screw. Press the MENU button on the keypad select SETUP and press enter and select the language option. Press enter and use the UP/DOWN arrows on the keypad to highlight the language you desire and then press the enter button. The reason for initialization is to speed up the process for computing the first position fix when the SporTrak has no last position computed in memory. This gives SporTrak an approximate indication of where it is located so it can use its satellite almanac (Stores in permanent memory) to estimate which satellites are overhead and which one it should be looking for. To convert to decimal degrees take the degrees plus the minutes/60. For example to convert 46deg30.00min in decimal degrees: 46 + 30/60 = 46.5 degrees. Likewise.5 degree =.5*60 = 30 minutes.
How do I convert from deg.min. to deg.dddd?
First clear memory (as this will clear all your previously stored waypoints/landmarks, you may want to save them first). You can do this through the CLEAR MEMORY function within the SETUP menu. My SporTrak cannot locate fnd When memory is cleared, reinitialize satellites. What can I do to resolve your SporTrak as if new and set this problem? outside for about 10 minutes to collect a new satellite almanac. This part of the process could take up to an hour. When you have accomplished this, your SporTrak should be computing fixes and operating normally.
Where do I connect the wrist-strap on my SporTrak?
On the little D which is at the battery case screw.
Is it normal for the backlight to come on with an alarm? The SporTrak map has 2 Mb for basemap and 6Mb for detail maps. So, if a basemap is downloaded from the worldwide basemap, where is it saved on my SporTrak? Is it possible to upload maps to my SporTrak (yellow and black model)?

It is and the backlights will not timeout.
It is saved in the detail map folder (6Mb).
No, this unit is a basic GPS and is not intended for loading maps. You will want to look at the various SporTrak models to find one that is capable of loading basic maps. You cannot load the entire map to your SporTrak because SporTrak does not have enough internal memory to accommodate this download). Go to the map screen. Zoom out to a level of 200 miles or more. You should see a small black box indicating the region you have loaded. Using the arrow keypad, place the cursor inside this box. Now zoom in to a closer range. As you zoom in details of the area loaded should begin to show at zoom levels of 0.40 miles and lower.
Can I download the entire MapSend application map to my SporTrak?
How can I view the region, which I have just loaded to my SporTrak?
The PC shows that the firmware has completed loading, but my receiver is still on and I cannot turn it off.
Try pressing the GOTO, ESCAPE, and ENTER keys simultaneously. If the unit does not power down, you may have to remove the batteries.
When you upload a map to the GPS, the point of interest goes with it, by default, but the point of interest icons are not displayed on the map screen. Its easy to display some or all of them. Press the MENU key on the SporTrak, select Map Setup, and use the cursor key to arrow right to the I have loaded maps with the points display tab. In this screen you can of interest using MapSend. But I choose to display all the points of dont see the points of interest on interest, not display any overlay map screen? features (clear all), or specify any particular points of interest categories you want to display. You can change your selection anytime. Also, even when points of interest are set to not be displayed, you can still search them, view them, and use them as routing destinations. Your SporTrak is based on UTC (Universal Time Clock) and not on the local time.
