1.28.1 About custom setup
Every time your navigating environment or task changes, you must adjust the radar, which can be
a nuisance in a busy situation. Instead of changing radar settings case by case, it is possible to
assign the function keys to provide optimum settings for often encountered situations.
The radar's internal computer offers three default custom setups (see the table below). However
you may customize theses settings to meet your navigation needs, on the Custom 1, Custom 2
and Custom 3 menus.
To enable a custom setup, press the CUSTOM key. Each press of the key enables CUSTOM1,
CUSTOM or CUSTOM3 cyclically. The chosen custom setup name is shown at the top left corner.
To escape from custom setup, operate any control.
