Function Keys There are four primary buttons used to access different menus on the PLGR: MENU, WP, POS, NAV If at any time you find yourself in a menu you are not familiar with, you can press the MENU, WP, POS, or NAV key to exit back to a main menu screen. MENU – allows you to update parameters in the PLGR WP – Waypoint and Route Menus POS – Displays current information on your position and satellites (SV) NAV – Allows you to choose from 4 methods of navigation from point to point. The MARK key allows the user to save his current location as a Waypoint. The next waypoint in sequential order not used will be chosen unless the operator changes it prior to saving the Mark. NUMLOCK – works great when entering grids in the waypoint menu. When numlock is ON an “N” is displayed in the lower right corner. When numlock is off, a “P” is displayed in the lower right corner. When using numlock, make sure to turn it off once you’ve entered your grid. Function keys such as WP, POS, NAV, MARK, ARROWs do not work when NUMLOCK is on. ARROW KEYS – Using the left and right arrow keys allows the user to scroll through options on the current page. Using the up and Down arrow keys allows the user to select or change the blinking option on the page. In order to scroll through pages within menus, use the right or left arrow until you see a set up arrows next to the “P” in the lower right corner. Then press the up or down arrow to scroll through the pages. You can also scroll through the four main menu pages by pressing the specific menu button consecutive times. (example: press the POS key one time, the first page of POS is displayed. Press the POS key a second time, the second page of POS is displayed)
