Beside the WGS84 map system many countries have their own map system of reference.
Due to misinterpretations caused hereby, we have erased this selection from the
FLYTEC 6030 GPS. Only the WGS84 Geodetic system is in force, which is the only one
being homologated for record flights by FAI and OLC.
2.6.4.1 Waypoints, alter, Delete or insert
In this position of Set-Menu the waypoints may be managed. Waypoints may also be set
comfortably on the PC by use of the „Flychart 4.52“ PC-Software and be transferred
via the PC-interface to the instrument.
After briefly pressing the OK key the display
shows the list of saved waypoints. In case this list contains more than the visible 8 WP,
Then a down arrow Ð at the right lower edge of the list warns that more pages are to follow.
To scroll down to the next page, press the ► key, now WP 9 … 16 are displayed etc.
Using the keys ▲ and ▼ it is possible to select
an individual WP and to edit it after pressing
the OK key.
The 1st letter of the WP name will blink, again
with the ▲ and ▼ keys the required letter is
selected; there are numbers, letters, as well as a
set of special characters to choose from.
By pressing the ► key you move forward to the
next letter etc. With the F1 key you may shift
between capitals and small letters. With the F2
key one single character is deleted (Rub out).
You can enter a maximum of 17 characters.
Once the name has been entered completely,
confirm by pressing OK .Now the waypoint
altitude will blink, requiring any alterations.
With the ▲▼ keys the altitude value is entered
and confirmed by pressing OK. Now the position
of WP is next. First the latitude is entered in
degrees and confirmed with OK, after that the
minutes and then the decimals of the minutes.
The same procedure is applied for the Longitude. Holding the key down for a longer
moment,
changes the values to be set faster.
Delete
Waypoints:
The selection of WP’s to be deleted is effected with the ▲ and ▼ keys.
Pressing the F2 key (Del WP) enables the delete function, for data safety the FLYTEC 6030 GPS
is asking again: “Delete Waypoint?”. The reply “Yes” or “No” is at choice, but it is also possible
to discontinue the deleting procedure by use of the Esc key and return to one level before.
Insert Waypoints:
Pressing the F1 key (Ins WP) enables this function. Entering waypoint names, altitude and
position is operated following the same scheme as described above. After confirming all
entries with the OK key, the new WP is inserted at the end position of the list. (There is no
alphabetical sorting). In total 200 WP may be saved in the FLYTEC 6030 GPS.
Caution
: After entering the new waypoints, (for ex. for a new Route entry) these can be used
only if in between with Page/ESC you have switched back to the normal flight mode.
In addition, the Route into which the new waypoint should be inserted must not be active.
