3. Use the up or down soft keys to change the alarm setting. For example, for
the arrival alarm you can adjust the radius from the waypoint at which the
arrival alarm will be triggered.
The alarm distances can be set in the range 0.01 to 9.99 nm, in steps of
0.01nm. The timer is set in hours, minutes and seconds, and the alarm
clock in hours and minutes.

If you turn an alarm off, its value is retained and will be used when you turn
the alarm on again.

Alarm which is always on.
