Subject: RE: Garmin 910xt and GPS Originally posted by jennifer_runs Do you make sure it's locked in before you start moving? If you start searching before it locks in it can "think" you are doing an indoor workout and stop searching. ^^^This^^^ Most of the time, they will connect within a few minutes, but sometimes it can take 5-10 minutes. It's crucial that you allow it time to do this before starting. Also, don't think of the GPS signal as "on" or "off". There are multiple satellites that it can connect to, and the more it "sees" the more accurate the data will be. If you only have the minimum number, it will be less accurate, and it will look like your pace and location are jumping around. I've seen people do this many times and blame the device when it's really a user error issue. You can check in the menus (I can't recall the exact menu choices) for then number of satellites connected and accuracy of the connection. I don't start sessions until the accuracy is less than 20 feet. |
