Saving Time. You may select which set of rules matches DST in your

Show WAAS Alarm
When the signal is available, your unit will automatically use WAAS to
boost the accuracy of a position fix. When the WAAS signal is lost or
acquired, a message appears. Since the U.S. government is still devel-
oping the WAAS system, it is not unusual for a GPS/WAAS receiver to
frequently lose and reacquire its lock on a WAAS satellite. That can
result in the alarm repeatedly going off. If you want, turn off the WAAS
Acquired/Lost alarm without affecting how the unit uses WAAS.
To turn off WAAS alarm:
1. Press MENU | MENU |

.
2. Press ENT to turn it on (check) or turn it off (uncheck). After the op-
tion is set, press EXIT | EXIT to return to the page display.
3. To turn the alarm on again, repeat Steps 1 and 2.
Software Version Information

some of its products. These software upgrades are usually offered to
