messages in the correct format. Refer to the external device’s user guide to determine the cor-

rect message format. Check the Installation Settings menu and make any necessary changes.

The EKP-III may not be properly connected to the external device. Check all connections to

be sure they are correctly made and secure.

Navigate feature does not work — Blanks are displayed in the navigation data fields until  a

GPS fix has been obtained; this usually occurs within a few Minutes. Also a Flight Plan must

be active to display values for navigation-related information (such as Cross Track Error) and

you must be travelling at least 2 Knots to display values for velocity-related information (such

as GS). Activate a Flight Plan and/or increase your speed.

Fluctuations in positioning and navigation data — Small fluctuations in positioning and

velocity-related navigation is normal.

The list above should allow you to solve most of the operating problems you are likely to

encounter. Simply disconnecting the EKP-III from power for a moment may solve your prob-

lem as well. If this does not help, try resetting the EKP-III to the factory defaults:

If this does not help, you can try one additional memory clear option. This is a facto-

ry default RAM Clear that should only be tried after all other attempts have been made. When

using the RAM Clear feature, you will loose all user stored information and the EKP-III will

default to factory settings. Before this step, you have the option of saving user Marks, Track

history and Routes to a User C-CARD (this is an optional purchase from your dealer). To per-

form a RAM Clear see Par. 15.7.
