Sorry my daughter pressed the Send command before I finished...

Please make sure you can set your address using the Space S command
if you can do this make sure as Mike says that you are in GPS mode
(Space V) toggles between GPS and VIrtual mode. If you state or city
does not come up chances are you don't have that state's map in your
maps directory. Please go to GPS options from the GPS menu and point
the maps directory where your maps are on your card. Once you point
to the right directory you will be told how many maps are loaded.
I hope this helps if you still can't get it to work please contact
Sendero Customer support and I am sure either Carl or Gil can help you.
In GPS mode once you are tracking satellites, C (current City) or
A(Address) will tell you where you are if it says "Unknown" then
chances are you don't have your state's maps loaded.

Hi Sarai
The only reason why it would not locate your address is that you don't have the correct map loaded. If you can use the Space S command and find your state, city, and street there is no reason why the GPS wouldn't find the same location. Please make sure you can set your address using the Spac

Sarai, First you must have the maps installed in the same folder, example MAPS which is the default. Do not copy the maps from the CDs by folder. Copy the folder files to the CF card. Be sure to include the POI file to the POI folder using the same method.
Once you have acquired satellites and you are in a position that you have maps installed you will be able to easily locate your location.
The only reason you would need to set a address is if you are using virtual mode. Then you need to establish a virtual location.

Hey guys: Okay, if I have eight maps loaded on a CF card, and I turn on my GPS and track satellites, I have to have a specific address/state selected, right? I can't just expect the GPS to put me at the correct spot, right? For some reason, I have to choose a spot in the state that I'm in in order to start tracking satellites and being able to use the GPS. Its frustrating because I'm traveling from Al to Ca tomorrow. Any suggestions?
