STATUS PAGE OPTIONS (cont.)

• Start Simulator or Exit Simulator?— allows you to start

the simulator mode or to cancel simulator mode and return
to normal operation. (See page 17 in the TakeOff Tour for
more information on using simulator mode.)

The GPSMAP 195’s position page shows you where you are, what

direction you are heading and how fast you are going. The top of the
page features a graphic compass to indicate your ground track (or
course over ground) while moving, and four user selectable data
fields: ground track (TRK), ground speed (SPD), distance traveled
(TRP) and altitude (ALT). The bottom half of the page displays
coordinates for your present position, along with the time of day as
calculated using GPS satellites. The status bar at the bottom of the
page indicates position fix status, and is described on page 8.

The units of measure for speed, distance, position and altitude are

all user selectable through the navigation setup option on the main
menu page. The time of day, shown in UTC (Universal Time
Coordinated, Greenwich Mean Time or Zulu Time), may be set to
display in a 12- or 24-hour time format and may also be adjusted to
local time through the setup menu option on the main menu page.
