LORAN TD Format
When creating new waypoints using LORAN TD
coordinates, you must set the correct LORAN chain
number and secondary stations in the Setup TD field
before storing the waypoint. After the waypoint is stored
in unit memory, it always references the LORAN chain
number and secondary stations currently selected in the
Setup TD field. If you enter a different LORAN chain
number, change the secondary stations, or offsets in the
Setup TD field, the active waypoint information reflects
those changes. Because the unit does not rely on the
LORAN signal for navigation, it can reference a different
GRI chain and/or secondary stations and still navigate to
the location stored in memory.
To adjust the Loran TD settings, select Loran TD as the
Position Format to open the Loran TD setup window. To
change the settings of any fields, highlight the field, press
the Thumb Stick In. When done, highlight Save and
press In.
