  • If you do not have an up-to-date EPO file, then yes, it can take some 10 minutes and more, to acquire all the necessary satellite data. You need to take care that you either have a phone with mobile data with you, and connected to the watch, or you have to update the EPO file with Garmin Express before going out.
