Contrast— lets you adjust the screen for optimum
viewing in all lighting conditions. Screen contrast is set

Ignition— refers to external power while the unit is
in a cradle operating off of vehicle or aircraft voltage.
Automatic shutoff times range from 30 seconds to 8
hours, plus ‘always on’. The user defined setting
determines how long the unit will operate on the battery
after power is removed. As the time is counting down,
the unit will display a page announcing that the unit is
going to turn itself off. This page will count down from
20 seconds.
To set the Ignition timeout:
1. Highlight the ‘Ignition’ field and press ENTER.
2. To keep the unit on continuously, select ‘Always On’
and press ENTER, Or...

Power Saver— means that the GPS will operate on a
reduced power cycle, thereby lessening internal process-
ing activity. During periods of high dynamics, such as
turning or acceleration, the GPS reverts to normal
operation for those periods.
Remote Command— is a feature that allows your
unit to be remotely queried by another NavTalk Pilot or
another DTMF capable device (i.e a PC Modem) giving
your current location. When switched to “Disabled” the
unit will NOT respond to any command issued by
another unit or modem according to the privacy that you
desire. When “Enabled” the unit will respond as needed
to any remote commands transferring your location to the
request.
You can adjust the screen
contrast from the Satellite
Status Page or from the
‘System’ settings.
