When you are in manual tuning mode, pressing the EDIT
key will bring up the cursor on the Frequency. You can
only complete the manual tuning operation by pressing
the EDIT key when the Frequency is highlighted.
Program the frequency you desire and press the EDIT
key. The CDU will automatically update the Station ID.
If the beacon is transmitting its location, the CDU will
calculate the distance between the reference station and
the receiver.
You can usually find the current beacon status, location
and operating information from the governing country’s
Coast Guard or Maritime Safety Administration. You
will find a list of known beacon stations in Appendix B -
Beacon List at the end of this manual. This list may be
incomplete, in which case we encourage you to contact
the appropriate governing agency.
Once you have entered the data for several beacon sta-
tions, you can cycle between these stations by press-
ing the Next Station or Previous Station softkeys. These
softkeys are only displayed if you have entered a name
for the reference station.
The window on the right side of the display indicates
which satellite ID’s are receiving corrections. When the
PRN number is shown in inverse video, this indicates
that the receiver is using the correction in the naviga-
tion solution. The Corr value is the actual satellite range
measurement correction, given in meters. This value is
typically between -20 and +20. The Age value indicates
how long it has been since the satellite range correction
was generated, given in seconds.
