Timer (TMR)

The Timer Mode allows you to set or view several timing functions. You
can set one or two timers as count up or count down timers. You can
view the Trip Time, Trip Distance, Flight Time, and Flight Distance. The
Trip Time and Trip Distance show the time and distance traveled since
being reset. The Flight Time and Flight Distance show the time and dis-
tance traveled since the Trigger Speed was reached. Enter the Trigger
Speed to set the threshold where the Flight timers start after the air-
craft reaches the selected speed. Use the Large knob to highlight the
selection to change.

Timer 1 and Timer 2
Edit the Timer values by pressing in the CRSR knob, move the cursor
with the Large knob, change the value with the Small knob, and then
press the Enter key. Press the 1 Min or 2 Min keys to instantly insert 1 or
two minutes as the time. Press the Disp key to display the Timer value
on the Map pages. The Disp key will be highlighted and an asterisk will
appear next to the value that will be displayed on the Map pages. Press
the CLR key to reset the values to 0.
Trip Time and Distance
The Trip Time and Distance counters display the time and distance
traveled since the last time they were reset.
1. Turn the Large knob to highlight Trip Time.
2. Press the Disp key to display the Trip Timer value on the Map pages.
3. To clear the Trip Time and Trip Distance values, press the CLR key.
Flight Time and Distance
The Flight Time and Distance counters start and stop according to two rules:
1) The counters reset and start once the aircraft goes above the Trig-

ger Speed for ten seconds.

2) The counters stop after the aircraft has been below the Trigger

Speed for 30 seconds or more.
