Section 1 Introduction to GPS Navigation GPS Overview The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a constellation of 24 satellites in six orbit lanes 10,898 nautical miles above the earth at an inclination angle of about 55 degrees from the equator. Each satellite orbits the eart h twice in 24 hours.
receiver chooses satellites to calculate a position fix. Using information transmitted from three or more satellites, the unit can calculate latitude and longitude (usually abbreviated lat/lon); with four or more satellites, GPS altitude can also be calculated.
Section 2 Introduction to the Apollo 360 This section introduce s you to the Apollo 360 and explains how to use and switch between th e un it’s o perati ng functions. A description of information that shows on the display when you use each function is included at the back of this section.
Function Keys Each of the operating functions is easily accessible from the front panel by using the function keys. Remember, the navigation function is always active -pressing a key is not necessary to enable it. Navigat ion Function This funct ion starts automatical ly when the unit is switched on and stays active.
Menu Function Use this function to access a menu of options that modify the way navigation information shows on the display. In this way, you may customize the Apollo 360 to best suit your navigation requirements. The menu function also controls many other important ways the unit operates.
The Display The dis play shows information fo r each operating function. This informat ion typically includes navigation progress, waypoint informati on, satellite tracking status, and menu options and selections. Display contrast and the display back light are adjustable t o best suit viewing conditions in the cockpit.
LCD Backlight Th i s ke y co nt r ol s the L iqu i d Cry st al Di spl a y (L CD ) backlight, enabling you to easily view the display in a wide variety of cockpit ambient light conditions. Five backlight intensity levels are available from no intensity (off) to high intensity.
The Power Knob This knob switc hes the receiver on and off. Each time you switch the unit on, it performs internal diagnostics, begins tracking ava ilable GPS satell ites, and activates the navigation function. This process takes only a few seconds, providing that a seed position and current time have been entered.
The Display Screens Infor mat ion yo u vie w on the display while using the Apollo 360 shows one page or “screen” at a time. Many of the operating functions can show more than one screen of information.
Navigat ion Function Screens The Apollo 360 shows one of eight screens while you use the navigation function. Each screen contains useful information. After the startup screen appears on th e display, the unit shows the GPS signal screen, allowing you to verify good signal rece ption from available satellites.
