Flip-Flop button puts the currently selected result into the active frequency 

instead, and returns to the normal operating screen. 

Recent Frequencies 
There is also a memory of the ten most recent frequencies that you have used.  

From the initial memory screen, move the cursor using the large knob to 

highlight the MEMORY caption, and turn the small knob to select the RECENT 

database. 
Move the highlight onto the frequency, and you can scroll through the ten 

most recently used frequencies. 

 

GPS Database 
If it has been configured in your aircraft, there is a third database in the radio.  

This is loaded by your GPS receiver and will contain airfields appropriate to 

your current route of flight. 
It is accessed exactly the same way as the built in database, except that you 

first select the remote data source using the large knob (to highlight the 

database field) and the small knob (to select the GPS data source). 
The only difference is that airfield identifiers are usually ordered by how close 

they are to your route, rather than alphabetical order. 

Entering New Frequencies 
You can add station identifiers and frequencies to the internal database, which 

stores up to 250 entries.  To edit the database, go into memory mode by 

pressing the MEM button, then press and hold the MEM button for 5 seconds.  

The screen will change to highlight the top field which will offer the choice of 

EDIT, DELETE, ADD NEW and CANCEL.

To add a new database entry, select ADD NEW, and then press MEM again.  

Use the large knob to move the highlighted cursor, and use the small knob to 

select characters, numbers or facility type.  Pressing the MEM button again 

stores the new value, and returns to the normal memory mode. 
If you already have entries in the database, you can edit them to change the 

details, or you can delete them.  To do that, first find the entry that you want to 

edit or delete using the normal memory mode.  Then, with the entry you want 

to change displayed, press and hold the MEM button for 5 seconds.  The 
choices described earlier will be offered; EDIT, DELETE, ADD NEW or CANCEL. 
If you choose EDIT, and press MEM, the cursor can alter characters, numbers or 

facility type in the current entry.  Pressing MEM will save that changed entry.  If 
you choose DELETE, and press MEM, the current entry will be deleted. 

 

If you get this far and realise that you did not want to change the database at 

all, select CANCEL and then press MEM; you will be returned to the normal 

memory mode. 

Configuration Mode 
Additional setup items can be accessed by holding down the MON button for 

5 seconds.  The menu options can be selected using the larger tuning knob and
