How long does it take to obtain a satellite fix?

Establishing a GPS connection may take several minutes. Time can change due to satellite geometry, location, near by buildings, natural obstacles, and weather conditions.

The time from operation start to satellite fix is comparable with other standalone GPS devices. While the theoretical minimum to get a satellite fix is approximately 40 seconds, in practice, the required time is usually from one to several minutes. This can be shorter if the GPS receiver is restarted in a location where it has been used just shortly before.
