Garmin APOLLO GX65 - Manual (Page 16)

flight plans can be saved with up to twenty legs for
setting up custom tailored routes. The detailed
Navigation
information displays are also
customizable and can be set to automatically scroll
through
the desired information. The
Nearest/Emergency Search feature, invented by II
Morrow (Garmin AT), makes it easy to react to an
emergency or change your active flight plan.
GX55
The GX55 is designed to be simple slide-in,
pin-compatible
replacement for panel-mounted
Apollo Loran and Flybuddy GPS receivers. The
GX55 connectors and antenna footprint are the same
as the Apollo Loran and Flybuddy GPS receivers.
The GX55 is TSO-C129 Class A2 authorized for IFR
en route and terminal operation.
GX50
The Apollo GX50 GPS receiver possesses all of the
performance features of the GX55, plus more. The GX50
is TSO-C129a Class A1/JTSO-C129a Class A1 authorized
for IFR non-precision approach operation. The GX50 uses
the same tray size, but different connections on the back to
allow for approach capabilities.
GX60
The Apollo GX60 combines the physical package of
the GX50 GPS receiver with a revolutionary VHF
Comm
transceiver. All of this without the
requirement for external cooling.
GX65
The Apollo GX65 possesses the same features as the
GX60, except it is not certified for IFR approaches
and has TSO-C129a Class A2/JTSO-C129a Class A2.
Display
The display is a 160 by 80 pixel electroluminescent
graphic display. A photocell is located in the top left
corner of the front panel display. The photocell
automatically controls the light intensity of the
display from low brightness at night to high
brightness during daylight operation.
