Fuel On Board and Checklists
The instrument panel self-test page includes selec-
tions to set fuel on board (FOB) to full capacity and
access the checklists page. This allows you to quickly
set fuel to full limits and display any checklists you’ve
entered, such as start up or takeoff checklists.
To set fuel on board to full (if not provided by
sensor):
1. Turn the large right knob to highlight “Set
Full Fuel?”.
Select “Set Full Fuel?” to set fuel on board
(FOB) to full capacity.
2. Press ENT and verify that fuel on board
(“FOB”) now matches the fuel capacity (CAP)
figure. Fuel on board will now be reduced, over
time, based on the fuel flow (FF) figure.
Fuel On Board & Checklists
To view the checklists page:
1. Turn the large right knob to highlight “Go To
Chklist?” and press ENT.
Select “Go To Chklist?” to display the check-
list page and any available checklists. The
400W-series unit can hold up to nine check-
lists with up to 30 entries in each checklist.
2. Turn the large right knob to select the desired
checklist, then follow the steps in Section 9
- Aux Pages - Utility Page to execute each
step in the selected checklist.
3. Once you complete the desired checklist(s),
press the small right knob to return to the
checklists page. Press the small right knob
again to return to normal operation on the
satellite status or map pages.
Once you’ve verified instrument operation with
the instrument panel self-test page displayed,
press the ENT key.
The satellite status page will appear as the 400W-
series unit begins to collect satellite information. An
“Acquiring” status will be displayed on the satellite
status page, and the signal strength of any satellites
received will appear as “bar graph” readings. This is
a good indication that you are receiving signals and a
position fix will be determined. Following the first-
time use of your 400W-series unit, the time required
for a position fix will vary—within two minutes.
