System Settings

Some common settings that can be accessed from any
page are; Backlighting, Navigation Mode, NMEA Output,
Map Direction and Units (Miles vs. Kilometers) See 20-A.
Most of the settings affect the Map Page.

Backlight

allows you to change the time the background

lighting remains on.

Navigation Mode

allows you to select Normal, Saving or

Simulate mode. Saving mode allows the unit to still search
for satellites but not as often, thus saving battery life. This
setting is not recommended for difficult terrain or in city
areas where satellite reception may be weak.

NMEA Output

allows the Galileo

to communicate to

NMEA 0183 ready devices. See page 33 for NMEA information.

Map Direction

switches the map page orientation from

North being the direction heading or Track. Track relates
to either a shortcut (GoTo) or waypoint location. When
Track is selected a small Icon in the top left of the screen
points in the direction of North.

Units

switch between US and Metric measurements.
