The built-in Simulator function allows you to become proficient in the use of the EKP-IV before ever
taking it into the cockpit. No current position fix is required because the EKP-IV simulates position
data internally. The EKP-IV simulates flight in two ways: a straight flight path or following a selected
route. The Simulator will display various altitudes during simulation mode. Fix status displayed in
the GPS page during this mode is "Simulation".

12.1 SIMULAtING StRAIGht MoDE

For Straight Mode of Simulation, you enter the of Speed and Heading. The EKP-IV will then fly that
speed and heading indefinitely until a change is made, i.e. you adjust either parameter. The starting

> 'MENU' 1 sec. + "SIMULATOR" + 'ENTER' + "SPEED" + 'ENTER'
Using the cursor key select the desired Speed and press 'ENTER'.
