1 Section 1: Read Me First! How this manual can get you flying, fast! Welcome to the exciting world of GPS! We know you're anxious to take off and begin navigating, but we have a favor to ask.
2 Whether your AirMap 500 is the only GPS in the cockpit or backing up an in-panel display, you're using the most versatile and most affordable hand-held GPS receiver in the aviation market today. Our goal for this book is to get you in the air (or out on the road) fast, with a minimum of fuss.
3 the basics (or if you already have some GPS experience), you may want to try out some of AirMap's many advanced features. That brings us to Section Four, Land Mode Operation , which also includes its own one- page quick reference.
4 Receiver: ......................... I n t e r n al, 12 parallel channel GPS+WAAS; ad- vanced active remote external antenna included. Recording: ....
5 Nearest Airport: ............ Quickly locates an airfield closest to your current position. (Aviation Mode only.) Man Overboard: ............. MOB feature precisely marks man overboard location with special icon, then automatically displays navigation data to that position.
6 The performance doesn't stop there. Stored in the permanent memory of each AirMap is a basic background map of the entire world. (For just what's in the map, see the preceding segment on specifications.) We lock it in here at the factory — you can't change or erase this map.
7 Custom Map Files (file format *.lcm) can also be shared between Air- Maps, other Lowrance GPS or sonar/GPS units and personal computers. You make your own Custom Map Files with our MapCreate software, but you don't have to. We also sell ready-to-use FreedomMaps .
8 are spares, unused until needed. The rest virtually guarantee that at least four satellites are in view nearly anywhere on Earth at all times. A minimum of three satellites are required to determine a 2D fix. The system requires signal reception from three satellites in order to determine a position.
9 WAAS signals make your GPS navigation even more accurate. Your AirMap automatically receives both GPS and WAAS signals. However, WAAS has some limits you should know about. First, the U.S. government has not completed construction of the WAAS system, so it is not yet fully operational.
10 Keyboard The other keys perform a variety of functions. When the text refers to a key to press, the key is shown in bold, sans serif type. For example, the "Enter/Save" key is shown as ENT and the "Menu" key is shown as MENU .
11 Section 2: Installation & Accessories Power The AirMap operates from AA batteries or on 3 volts DC using an op- tional external power cable with a cigarette lighter adapter. If the power cable is used, the AirMap automatically switches to it if the ex- ternal power is greater than the battery voltage.
12 Do not mix different battery types. Mixing battery types may cause leak- age. (For example, don’t use both alkaline and NiMH batteries at the same time, and don't use standard alkalines with rechargeable alkalines.) Battery Installation Turn the unit over so that the back is facing you.
13 Cigarette Lighter Power Adapter To use external DC power: Plug the power cable's cigarette lighter adapter into a cigarette lighter receptacle. Next, slide the other connec- tor over the power contacts on the bottom of the AirMap case. Attach external power cable to AirMap.
14 3. Hold unit upright in left hand. Use a thumbnail or fingernail to grab the groove in the bottom of the MMC. 4. Drag the MMC from the slot into the battery compartment. 5. Hold AirMap face up and give it a shake to dump the MMC into your hand or onto a work surface.
15 External Active Antenna A GPS antenna requires a clear view of the sky for optimum operation. Inside the cockpit, your AirMap can sometimes maintain satellite lock while sitting on the seat beside you, but we don't recommend this for optimum performance.
16 Press suction cup plate firmly against a window with unobstructed view. Wherever you mount the antenna, make sure it is in a location with an unobstructed view of the sky. If you're sticking it to a window, moisten the suction cups on the mounting plate and press firmly against the window.
17 Section 3: Aviation Operation This section addresses AirMap's main aviation GPS functions. The principles are the same in both operating modes, so this discussion also serves as a good introduction to Land Mode work.
18 6. EXIT – The Exit key lets you return to the previous screen, clear data or erase a menu. 7. FIND (Direct To) – The Find key launches the AirMap search menus. It also allows you to go Direct To items shown in search lists. 8. ZOUT – (Zoom Out) – This key lets you zoom the screen out to see a larger geographic are on the map.
19 Alarms command: turns arrival, off course and anchor GPS alarms on or off and changes alarm thresholds. Aviation Alarms command: turns distance, time, near and inside air- space alarms on or off and changes alarm thresholds. Route Planning command: used to plan, view or navigate a route.
20 WARNING: Do not begin navigating with this unit until the numbers have stopped flashing! Satellite Page. Left view indicates unit has not locked on to any satellites and does not have a fix on its position. Center view shows satellites being scanned.
21 The Satellite Status Page has its own menu, which is used for setting various options. (Options and setup are discussed in Sec. 5.) To access the Satellite Status Page Menu, from the Status Page, press MENU . Position Page This page provides detailed textual information on your present position and the status of your trip.
22 shows the compass direction straight to the destination from your loca- tion at the moment. Off Course tells you how far you are to the left or right of the intended direction or line of travel toward a destination. Most of the unit's displays show Off Course as "Cross Track" or "XTK.
23 Tip: You can fully customize the upper text displays, and there are 26 types of information to select from. For customization instructions see the Customize Page Displays topic in Sec. 5, System and GPS Setup Options . The heart of this page is the Course Arrow with its Course Deviation Indicator (CDI) needle.
24 The default for the cross track error range is 2.0 nau tica l m ile s, which is shown in a floating text box under the scale. If you veer 2 nau tica l mil es to the left or right of the course, the off course alarm will appear. If you are off course to the right, the range box floats to the right of the course line.
25 Navigating with OBS Hold AirMap contains an OBS Hold feature to help you navigate along a radial from a location. You must first turn on navigation to a location before you can access OBS Hold. While running a route or navigating to a waypoint, you launch OBS Hold from the HSI Page; just press the right or left arrow to initiate it.
26 Use the Clear OBS Hold command to resume navigation. The HSI Navigation displays will point to your original destination again. At right, you can see the pilot's diversion in his trail on the map page. You can turn off OBS Hold at any time using the HSI Page menu.
27 Far left, Map Page opening screen. Center, zoomed to 100 nautical miles and right, zoomed to 6 nautical miles. (Note that the four data boxes ap- pearing in the bottom of these images are on by default. They have been turned off in most of the following images for the sake of clarity.
28 Background map vs. MapCreate map content The background map includes: low-detail maps of the whole world (con- taining cities, major lakes, major rivers, political boundaries); and me- dium-detail maps of the United States. The medium-detail U.S. maps contain: all incorporated cities; county boundaries; some major city streets; Interstate, U.
29 Tip: In some urban areas, businesses are so close to one another that their POI icons crowd each other on the screen. In the preceding figure, you can see a packed string of POIs all along the west half of 11th.
30 way position information listed in our database. Then, when you press PAGE from the Map Page, it will switch to a split map, showing your current position in the top map, and a zoomed view of the destination airport in the bottom map. Both maps are always in "Track Up" mode.
31 Aviation GPS Quick Reference Start outdoors, with a clear view of open sky. Imagine you're flying to a nearby airport to practice landings. (If you're practicing on foot or by car, substitute a restaurant for an airport. Pick one a few blocks away.
32 Find Your Current Position Finding your current position is as simple as turning AirMap on. Under clear sky conditions, the unit automatically searches for satellites and calculates its position in approximately one minute or less. NOTE: "Clear sky" means open sky, unobstructed by terrain, dense foliage or structures.
33 object or place. The distance, measured in a straight line, appears in the data box at the bottom of the map. Press EXIT to clear the cursor. Selecting Any Map Item With the Cursor 1. Use the zoom keys and the arrow keys to move around the map and find the item you wish to select.
