4.5 CHECKING GPS CONNECTIONS

After connections have been made between the MATRIX and the GPS, a
small satellite icon will appear on the top right corner of the LCD display. To
see additional GPS information press and hold the [H/L] (NAV) key until the
MATRIX shows the Date, Time, SOG and COG.

4.6 CHANGING THE GPS TIME

From the Factory the MATRIX shows GPS satellite time or UTC time. A time
offset is needed to offset this time to show the local time in your area.

1. Press and hold down the [CALL/SET] key until

“RADIO SETUP” menu appears.

2. Press the [CALL/SET] key, then select “TIME SET”

with the CHANNEL selector knob.

3. Press the [CALL/SET] key.
4. Turn the CHANNEL selector knob to select time

offset from UTC. See illustration below to find your
offset time from UTC. If “0:00” is assigned, the time
is the same as UTC (Universal Time Coordinated
or GMT Greenwich Mean Time).

5. Press the [CALL/SET] key to store the time offset.
6. Press the [16/9] key or turn the CHANNEL selector knob to select “EXIT,”

then press the [CALL/SET] key to return to the “RADIO SETUP” menu,
select “EXIT” and press the [CALL/SET] key to return to radio operation.
