Memory battery low

- The battery that sustains user memory is low

and should be replaced by an authorized
GARMIN service center as soon as possible.
Failure to do so may result in loss of stored
data, including all user waypoints and routes.

Near SUA < 2 nm

- Your position is within 2 nautical miles of an

SUA, and your current course will not take
you inside.

No DGPS position

- Not enough data is available to compute a

differential GPS (DGPS) position.

No RTCM input

- DGPS data, in an RTCM SC-104 format, is

not available.

Need alt - press NAV

- The GNC 250XL needs altitude input in

order to start and/or continue 2D navigation.
Press the NAV key and enter your antenna
altitude on the Position page. The altitude
you enter should be as accurate as possible.
An inaccurate altitude will directly translate
into inaccurate position information.

Offset nav cancelled

- Offset navigation has been cancelled due to a

direct-to operation or modification of the
active route.

Offset nav in effect

internal crystal oscillator which may result in
longer acquisition time. The unit should be taken
to an authorized service center immediately.

Poor GPS coverage

satellites necessary to provide navigation.

Prox alarm-press NAV - Your craft has penetrated the alarm circle of a

proximity waypoint. Press NAV to see the bearing
and distance to the proximity waypoint.

Proximity overlap

- The circles defined by two proximity way-

points overlap. When entering the area of the
overlap, the GNC 250XL will warn you of

You should be certain this condition is
desirable.

Proximity wpt locked

because the waypoint has been removed
from the Jeppesen NavData®, the data card
