TAKEOFF TOUR
Power On
The Garmin 500W-series offers you accurate
navigational data and communication capability, along
with non-precision and precision approach certifica-
tion in the IFR environment. The Takeoff Tour is
designed to familiarize you with the basic operation
of the 500W-series — including powering up the
unit, changing frequencies, entering data, perform-
ing a simple direct-to, selecting IFR procedures and
provides a limited introduction to using flight plans.
In addition, this section briefly covers the default
navigation, map and frequency pages available as part
of the NAV page group. These pages are used for most
of your in-flight navigation.
The Takeoff Tour assumes that the unit and anten-
nas have been properly installed and you have not
changed any of the 500W-series default settings. If
you have changed any of the factory default settings
(position format, units of measure, selectable fields,
etc.), the pictures shown here may not exactly match
what you see on your 500W-series unit. Prior to using
your 500W-series unit for the first time, we recom-
mend that you taxi to a location that is well away from
buildings and other aircraft so the unit can collect
satellite data without interruption.
Powering up the 500W-series units
The GNS 530W’s power and COM volume are
controlled using the COM power/volume knob at
the top left corner of the unit. In the GPS 500W, the
knob controls only power. Turning it clockwise turns
unit power on and increases the COM radio volume.
After turning the unit on, a Welcome Page is displayed
while the unit performs a self test, followed by a Land
Data Page.
The Database Confirmation Page appears next
and shows the current database information on the
NavData card (with the valid operating dates, cycle
number and database type indicated). The database
is updated every 28 days and must be current for
approved instrument approach operations. Informa-
tion on database subscriptions is available inside your
500W-series package.
To acknowledge the database information, press
the ENT key .
