Garmin GPS 150 GPS Receiver User Manual


 
The course deviance indicator (CDI) may be set to deflect full scale at either 5 distance
units (mi, nm, km) or 1.25 distance units. This setting will cause the CDI to deflect appro-
priately when you have cross track error. This page also contains the arrival alarm settings.
The arrival alarm can be set to alert the pilot a specified distance from the destination way-
point. When this distance is reached, the message ‘Arrival at ____’ will be displayed.

The GPS 150 automatically sequences the active leg of the current route to the
next leg when you pass the ‘active to’ waypoint. This is known as automatic leg
sequencing. It will also select the leg of a route nearest your current position when a
route is activated. This is known as automatic leg selection. Both automatic leg
sequencing and automatic leg selection may be turned off.
To change route settings (auto leg sequencing and selection):
1. Press
S
and rotate
O
until the Route Settings page is displayed.
2. Press
