GPS 500 Pilot’s Guide and Reference
SECTION 14 – MESSAGES,
ABBREVIATIONS, & NAV TERMS
14-2
Cannot navigate locked FPL - The pilot has
attempted to navigate a flight plan (FPL) with
one or more locked waypoints. A waypoint can
be ‘locked’ when the NavData card is replaced
and the waypoint(s) does not exist in the new
database.
Can’t change an active waypoint - An attempt
has been made to modify the position of the active
‘to’ or ‘from’ waypoint. The GPS 500 does not
allow modifications to user waypoints currently
being utilized for navigation guidance.
Can’t delete an active or FPL waypoint - An
attempt has been made to delete the active ‘to’ or
‘from’ waypoint. The GPS 500 will not allow the
deletion of user waypoints currently being utilized
for navigation guidance.
CDI key stuck - The CDI Key is stuck in the
enabled (or pressed) state. Try pressing the CDI
Key again to cycle its operation. If the message
persists, contact a Garmin dealer for assistance.
Check unit cooling - The GPS 500 has detected
excessive display backlighting temperature. The
backlighting has been automatically dimmed
to reduce the temperature. Check for adequate
ventilation or check cooling air flow. Contact a
Garmin dealer for assistance.
Data card failure - The GPS 500 has detected
a problem with the NavData card. The data is
not usable and the card should be returned to
Jeppesen or a Garmin dealer.
Data transfer cancelled (crossfill is busy)
- An attempt to transfer flight plan data during a
unit-to-unit crossfill was cancelled. The host unit
is busy or unable to communicate. Wait until any
previous crossfill operation is complete before
attempting the transfer again.
Data transfer cancelled (data invalid) - An
attempt to transfer a single user waypoint during a
unit-to-unit crossfill was cancelled. No waypoint
was specified on the Crossfill Page. Select a user
waypoint and attempt the transfer again.
Data transfer cancelled (version mismatch)
- An attempt to transfer data during a unit-to-unit
crossfill was cancelled. The database versions
of the two 500 Series units are not identical. If
necessary, update the database(s) so they match.
Contact Jeppesen or your Garmin dealer for
assistance.
Data transfer error, please re-transmit - An
error was detected during unit-to-unit crossfill
of user data (user waypoints and/or flight plans).
The data transfer should be attempted again.
Data transfer is complete - The unit-to-unit
crossfill of user waypoint data has finished.
Database changed, validate user modified
procedures - One or more approaches,
departures, or arrivals have been modified from
their original published form. When the NavData
card is replaced (database update), the changes in
the new database must be manually verified. This
message occurs each time a flight plan containing
a modified procedure (generated from a prior
database version) is activated. To eliminate the
message, re-create the flight plan from the new
database, then make the desired modifications.
Degraded accuracy - GPS position accuracy has
been degraded and RAIM is not available. Poor
satellite geometry (or coverage) has resulted in
a horizontal DOP greater than 4.0. Additional
cross-checking using another navigation source
is required to verify the integrity of the GPS
position.
