2.27 Custom Setup
2.27.1 About custom setup
When your navigating environment or task changes, you must adjust the radar. In-
stead of changing radar settings case by case, you can assign the
CUSTOM key to
provide best settings for common conditions.
There are three default custom setups for the internal computer of the radar. You can
adjust these settings on the [Custom 1], [Custom 2] and [Custom 3] menus to meet
your navigation needs.
To activate a custom setup, press the CUSTOM key. The CUSTOM key switches be-
tween Custom 1, Custom 2 or Custom 3 each time you press the key (Custom setup
numbers which are turned off are ignored). The selected custom setup name is shown
at the upper-left corner. To escape from custom setup, operate any control.
