Jay, There is no initializing required for the Earthmate and Sendero GPS. Your first attempt to gain satellites may take a extended period of time. This is due to the Earthmate receiver doing a "cold start". Once the receiver has located the satellites in your current location the Earthmate will remember there location and detecting satellites will occur faster.
