Data transfer cancelled (crossfill is busy)

-An attempt to transfer flight plan data during a unit-to-unit crossfill was cancelled. The host unit is busy or unable to communicate. Wait until any previous crossfill operation is complete before attempting the transfer again.

Data transfer cancelled (data invalid) - An attempt to transfer a single user waypoint during a unit-to-unit crossfill was cancelled. No waypoint was specified on the Crossfill Page. Select a user waypoint and attempt the transfer again.

Data transfer cancelled (version mismatch)

-An attempt to transfer data during a unit-to-unit crossfill was cancelled. The database versions of the two 500 Series units are not identical. If necessary, update the database(s) so they match. Contact Jeppesen or your Garmin dealer for assistance.

Data transfer error, please re-transmit - An error was detected during unit-to-unit crossfill of user data (user waypoints and/or flight plans). The data transfer should be attempted again.

Data transfer is complete - The unit-to-unit crossfill of user waypoint data has finished.

Database changed, validate user modified procedures - One or more approaches, departures, or arrivals have been modified from their original published form. When the NavData card is replaced (database update), the changes in the new database must be manually verified. This message occurs each time a flight plan containing a modified procedure (generated from a prior database version) is activated. To eliminate the message, re-create the flight plan from the new database, then make the desired modifications.

SECTION 16 – MESSAGES,

ABBREVIATIONS, & NAV TERMS

Degraded accuracy - GPS position accuracy has been degraded and RAIM is not available. Poor satellite geometry (or coverage) has resulted in a horizontal DOP greater than 4.0. Additional cross-checking using another navigation source is required to verify the integrity of the GPS position.

Display backlight failure - The GNS 530 has detected a failure in the display backlighting. The unit should be taken to your Garmin dealer for service.

Do not use for navigation - The GNS 530 is in Demo Mode and must not be used for actual navigation.

FPL has been truncated - The flight plan (FPL) was truncated because not enough room existed to insert an approach, departure, or arrival. This message also appears when an approach has been deleted from a stored flight plan because an approach could not be found. These conditions may occur upon power up when a database change increases the number of waypoints in, or removes an approach from, an instrument procedure.

FPL is full - remove unnecessary waypoints

-An attempt has been made to add more than 31 waypoints to a flight plan (FPL). The GNS 530 does not allow more than 31 waypoints per flight plan.

FPL leg will not be smoothed - The upcoming flight plan (FPL) leg is too short for smooth waypoint transitions. Expect a rapid change in the CDI.
