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.
