8.3 SATELLITE SKYVIEW PAGE
The Satellite Skyview Page shows the
azimuth and elevation of each visible
satellite in a graphic sky view format.
Additionally, DOP and EPE values are
shown on the right hand side of the
page. The display is always oriented
“north up” and is useful in determining
whether a satellite signal is being
blocked by part of the aircraft, buildings,
mountains, or other obstructions. If a satellite is not currently being received,
it will be highlighted on the display.
8.4 AUXILIARY MENU
The GPS 95's auxiliary pages allow you
to do setup functions to customize your
unit and E6-B calculations to plan your
flight. The 13 auxiliary pages are
accessible from the Auxiliary Menu by
highlighting the page you want and
pressing ENT. Once an auxiliary page
is selected PREV, AUX, and NEXT page
options will be displayed. The softkeys
allow changing to previous (PREV) and next (NEXT) auxiliary pages. The
AUX softkey takes you back to the Auxiliary Menu. (HINT: The PREV and
NEXT softkeys will only select the auxiliary pages of the same type - setups
or E6-B calculations. To change between types you must return to the
Auxiliary Menu first.)
The following sections describe the function of each auxiliary page.
8.5 OPERATING MODE/NEAREST AIRPORT SEARCH
From this page, you may change
between various operating modes by
highlighting the operating mode field
and pressing CLR. You may select
simulator mode, normal mode, or battery
saver mode. (See Section 1.5 for a
description of each mode.)
