No Diff GPS Position:

  No differential correction data is available or not enough

data is available to compute a DGPS position.

None Found:  

A search through MapSource data, using the selected criteria, has

produced no matching results.

Off Course: 

 You are left or right of course, beyond the limits set on the Course

Deviation Alarm.

Processor Failed:  

The unit has detected a fault in its internal processor. If the

problem persists, the unit is unstable. Return to GARMIN for service.

Requires MetroGuide Maps:  

The unit feature you are using requires MapSource

MetroGuide data. The currently installed datacard contains non-MetroGuide data
(e.g. Topo, Roads & Recreation map data).

Route Full: 

 You have attempted to add more than 30

 

waypoints to a route.

Route Memory Full: 

Route memory is full and no additional routes can be added

from another GPS unit or a PC.

Route Truncated: 

 The route has truncated because not enough space existed to

insert an approach.  Waypoints must be removed from the beginning of the route to
make space for the approach waypoints.

Steep Turn: 

Approximately one minute prior to a turn that requires a bank angle in

excess of 25 degrees in order to stay on course.

Sunrise, Switching To Day Mode: 

The map is switching to the Day Mode display.

Messages

Sunset, Switching to Night Mode:  

The map is switching to the Night Mode display.

Timer Has Expired: 

 The countdown timer has expired.

Track Memory Full: 

 Track Log memory is full. No additional track log data can

be stored without deleting old data to create memory space.

Track Truncated: 

 A complete uploaded track will not fit into memory. The oldest

track log points were deleted to make space for the most recent data.

Waypoint Added Successfully:

  The waypoint has been successfully entered into

the unit memory or added to the Favorite Waypoints list.

Waypoint Already Exits:  

You have entered a waypoint name that already exists in

memory. Modify the waypoint name or delete the previous waypoint name.

Waypoint Does Not Exist:  

A Jeppessen database waypoint was deleted during a

database update, but the position and waypoint name remain in a route. This
message appears when you attempt to review database information for a deleted
waypoint.

Waypoint Memory Is Full:  

You have used all

 

500 waypoints available. Delete

unwanted waypoints to make space for new entries.

VNAV Apprch Targ Alt:

 The current altitude is within 1000 feet of the final VNAV

target altitude.

VNAV Cancelled:

  The VNAV function has been cancelled due to a change in the

active route.
