monly-used databases are loaded onto your MAGNUM, and you may easily choose
one of them:
r Press the [ MENU ] key, then highlight the "SETUP" selection; click on this
selection.
r Highlight the "GENERAL" selection, and click on it.
r Highlight the "MAP DATUM" field, and click on it.
r Highlight the MAP DATUM selection you wish to use, and click on it.

While the default map coordinates (degrees, minutes, seconds) will be useful for
most applications, there are other location formats used in some situations. The
MAGNUM can be configured to handle any of these.

selection.
r Highlight the "MAP SETUP" selection, and click on it.
r Highlight the "LOCATION FORMAT" selection, and click on it.
r In the expanding box at the bottom, select from the available choices:
"hddd.mm.mmm," "UTM UPS," "LORAN TD," or "BRITISH GRID." Click
on your desired format.
r Highlight the "EXIT" and click on it.
