The GRI-Chain Number and Secondary Station Identifiers that
are set in the
Loran Setup
page will be used as a reference for the
TD’s when creating waypoints using the
Loran TD
Position Format.
Note: If you do not have the correct GRI-Chain or Secondary stations
set the waypoint will not be accurate.
The first setting is the Loran Chain Number. Accessing the
field activates a dropdown menu containing the 28 available
GRI-Chain numbers.
Setting the GRI-Chain Number:
1. Highlight the Loran Chain Number field and press
ENTER
.
2 Using the Arrows or Rocker Keypad, highlight the desired chain number and
press
ENTER
.
The next settings are Secondary Stations 1 and 2. Accessing
these fields activates a dropdown menu containing the 5 Secondary
Station Identifiers.
To set a Secondary Station:
1. Highlight either Secondary Station 1 or 2 field and press
ENTER.
2. Using the Arrows or Rocker Keypad select the desired identifier and press
ENTER.
If a Secondary Station is selected, but the identifier is not
valid for the active GRI-chain, the corresponding TD field on the
Position Page will be filled with zeros. To remedy this, select a
valid Secondary Station Identifier.
