SET CLOCK  

By pressing  "6" from the MAIN menu the unit will prompt you to enter 
the DATE and TIME. 
 

BAD RUNS

 

By pressing “7’ from the MAIN menu the unit will display any runs that 
do not “fit” with the rest of the data.  These runs will not be removed; 
you will have to clear them out of the data base yourself. 
Example: 

Run #1:   

Run #2   

Run #3 

DA = 1000 

DA = 2000 

DA = 1800 

ET =  10.10 

ET =  10.20 

ET =  10.21 

With these 3 runs in a data base BAD RUNS would display: 
Run 

does not fit. 
 
The reason Run #3 does not fit is because the run should have been 
faster then Run #2 since it is 200’DA less in altitude.   
 
It is now necessary for Run #3 to be removed from the data base.  To do 
this you must use the View/Delete option in the Run Entry Menu and 
Clear out Run #3. 
 
There may be times when multiple runs are shown that not to fit.  When 
this occurs it is often useful to use the 

downloading software

 to help 

determine what is going wrong. 
 

AUTO POWER OFF 

By pressing “8” you will the following will be displayed. 
 

ENABLE     =1 
DISABLE    =2 

Press 1 or 2

 

 

ENABLE allows the unit to automatically shut off after 2 minutes (Recommended ). 
DISABLE requires user to turn off unit by pressing OFF when in the MAIN MENU.
