Main Menu: Setup: Location
The Location Setup Page allows you to change the format for location readout
or select a different map datum. Format options include latitude/longitude (in several
formats), MGRS, UTM/UPS, Maidenhead, Loran TDs, and several regional grids. A
comprehensive list of over 100 map datums is available, which can be used to make
position readings on your GPS V conform to position readings on a printed map/chart.
Check the legend on your paper map/chart to determine which map datum was used
to create it.
NOTE: Format and map datum settings are best used by individuals with a working
knowledge of these subjects. Selecting the wrong format or wrong map datum can
result in substantial position errors.
