Odometer displays distance traveled over the ground.

Time Off displays the local and Zulu time when the program identifies

aircraft movement (from a GPS or the GPS Simulator Trainer) is greater than
the ground speed setting. The ground speed setting can be modified in the

Track/Vertical Profile tab of the FliteDeck Setup program. The local time is
generated from the Time Zone where movement occurred.

Time On displays the local and Zulu time when the program identifies aircraft

movement (from a GPS or the GPS Simulator Trainer) is less than the ground
speed setting. The ground speed setting can be modified in the Track/Vertical

Profile tab of the FliteDeck Setup program. The local time is generated from
the Time Zone where movement slowed or ceased.

NOTE

Time On and Time Off only reset when the program closes.

Sunrise in Local and GMT displays the local and GMT time of the sunrise. The

sunrise local time is based upon your current position on the moving map

using a GPS or the GPS simulator.

Sunset in Local and GMT—Displays the local and GMT time of the sunset. The

sunset local time is based upon your current position on the moving map

using a GPS or the GPS simulator.

Current Time displays the local and Zulu time based upon the time zone of

the airport nearest to your current position. The time is calculated starting

from your computer clock, and adding or subtracting to match the time zone
of your current position. The time zone of your current location displays below

the clock time. If you are more than 150 miles from an airport, the letters of
the alphabet appear indicating military time. For a list of military letter

designations, visit

the Internet.

NOTE

The Current Time block does not use the time zone set on your

computer clock. JeppView FliteDeck looks at your current position from
the GPS, and displays the time zone in that location. For example, your

computer clock might be set to Eastern Time, but if you are traveling on
the Pacific Coast, JeppView FliteDeck displays the current time using
Pacific Time.
