Using the correct local time setting is handy when estimating local ar- rival time while navigating. Also, the time and date are saved when a waypoint is created.
To access the Set Local Time menu, you must first acquire your posi- tion. Once that is done: press MENUMENU↓ to SYSTEM SETUPENT↓ to
SET LOCAL TIMEENT.
Once in the Time Settings menu:
To set Local Time: Press ENT. Press ↑ or ↓ to change the first charac- ter, then press → to move the cursor to the next character. Repeat until the time is correct, then press ENT.
To set the Month: Press ↓ to MONTHENT. Press ↑ or ↓ to select the month, then press ENT.
To set the Day: Press ↓ to MONTH→ to DAYENT. Press ↑ or ↓ to select the day, then press ENT.
To set the Year: Press ↓ to MONTH→ to YEARENT. Press ↑ or ↓ to se- lect the year, then press ENT.
The last field in this menu is CONFIG DST. This feature allows your unit to automatically adjust with the time change caused by Daylight Sav- ing Time (you should only have to set it once). You may select which set of rules matches DST in your region, or simply accept the default.
Once you have each field set the way you want, press EXIT repeatedly until you return to the previous page.
Show WAAS Alarm
When the signal is available, your unit will automatically use WAAS to boost the accuracy of the position fix. When the WAAS signal is lost or acquired, an alarm message appears. Since the U.S. government is still developing the WAAS system, it's not unusual for a GPS/WAAS re- ceiver to frequently lose and reacquire its lock on a WAAS satellite. That can result in the alarm repeatedly going on and off. If you want, you have the option of turning off the WAAS Acquired/Lost alarm with- out affecting how the unit uses WAAS. Here's how:
1.Press MENUMENU↓ to GPS SETUPENT↓ to SHOW WAAS ALARM.
2.With the option highlighted, press ENT to uncheck it (turn off) and check it (turn on.) After the option is set, press EXITEXIT to return to the page display.
