Basic GPS Operation

Basic GPS Operation

Chapter 3

The distance field in the upper left corner always displays
34.5 nm (or 63.9 km). If the KLN 89(B) is interfaced to a
compatible indicator that displays DME distance, the indicator
should be displaying 34.5 nautical miles.

If the KLN 89(B) is interfaced with a NAV indicator such as an
HSI or a course deviation indicator (CDI), the deviation bar (D-
bar) should be indicating a half scale deviation to the right. The
TO/FROM indicator should be showing FROM.

If the KLN 89(B) is interfaced with a NAV indicator such that the
KLN 89(B) can “read” the selected course from the NAV
indicator, then the OBS field should display the same selected
course as on the NAV indicator.

The RMI field always displays 130 degrees. If the KLN 89(B) is
connected to a compatible RMI in the aircraft, the RMI should
indicate a bearing to the station of 130 degrees.

If any of the above checks fail, do not use the associated
indicator with the KLN 89(B).

If the KLN 89(B) has passed the internal self test, the bottom of
the Self Test page will display Pass and all external annunciators
should be illuminated. If instead, Fail is displayed, recycle power
to the KLN 89(B). If the Self Test page still displays Fail, the
KLN 89(B) requires repair and should not be used for navigation.

4.

When you are ready to approve the Self-test page, press the

F

button while the Ok? is flashing. If it happens not to be flashing,
press the

B

button and use the right outer knob to move the

cursor there.

The next page displayed will be
the Initialization page (figure 3-8).
Verify that the date displayed in
the top left corner of the
Initialization page is correct. The
KLN 89(B) has an internal battery
powered calendar/clock, so the date and time normally don’t
require setting. The battery has a life of approximately 3 years.
In addition, the KLN 89(B)’s system date and time are automati-
