18. LP 0218 DAGR OPERATIONAL CHECKOUT e. With the SV Sky View page displayed, push the MENU key. f.Highlight Select Op Mode, then push the ENTER key. g. Highlight Continuous, then push the ENTER key. This mode enables the DAGR to acquire a current position fix. h. After satellites are acquired and a current position fix is obtained, the DAGR display stops blinking and Navigate SVs is shown on the SV Sky View page, then automatically switches to the Present Position page.

19. LP 0219 DAGR OPERATIONAL CHECKOUT Note –Display Blinks i,. Do the following before using the DAGR: Ensure the correct function set is being used Ensure the correct user profile is being used if using the advanced function set. Set the DAGR to the desired operating mode.
