If you are having trouble getting a GPS satellite fix on your HX-1, make sure you trying to detect
satellites while outside, clear of near by obstructions and with a clear view
of the sky.
The Satellite detection and download of GPS ephemeris and almanac data can take
up to 20 minutes, allowing the device to obtain a precise GPS fix on your location.
If this has not completed properly, you can
reset the GPS and try again, here's how:
To perform a GPS reset, first click the Hema button on the main launch screen, as shown at 1 below.

This will open the Floating Nav screen. Tap the satellite indicator on this screen as shown at 2 below.

The GPS Status screen will display. You may see either of the two following screens. Both of these show examples when GPS lock has not been obtained.
Tap the Reset GPS Satellite Data button to perform the GPS reset.


You will be prompted to confirm that you wish to perform the reset. Tap the OK button to confirm and continue with the reset.

You will see a message indicating that the GPS has flushed and is now re-acquiring almanac and ephemeris data (transmitted by the satellite constellation).

Once data has been received and a GPS lock established, you will see the GPS Status screen similar to the following, showing relative signal strengths and other satellite information.
