Appendix.. 91

The GPSMAP 60CSx operates on two AA batteries (not included), which are located in the back of the unit. You can use Alkaline or NiMH batteries. See page 67 to set the battery type.
To install the batteries: 1. Remove the battery cover by turning the D-Ring 1/4 turn counter- clockwise and pulling the cover loose. 2. Insert the batteries, observing the proper polarity. A polarity diagram is molded into the battery compartment. 3. Reinstall the battery Battery Compartment cover by aligning the back cover with the unit and turning the D-Ring 1/4 turn clockwise.

USE BY 2009

Note: Lithium batteries are not recommended because the initial voltage of new batteries may exceed 1.5 volts each, which may cause the GPSMAP 60CSx to turn off.
1. Place the loop of the Lanyard through the slot at the at the upper left side of the unit. 2 Route the strap through the loop and pull tight.

To install the Lanyard:

Remove the batteries from your GPSMAP 60CSx when you do not expect to use the unit for several months. Data is not lost when batteries are removed.

Using Tracks

The Tracks feature creates an electronic bread crumb trail or track log on the Map Page as you travel. The track log contains information about points along its path, including time, location, elevation, and depth for each point (depth requires NMEA input, see page 92). The track log starts recording as soon as the unit gets a location fix. The percentage of memory used by the current track log appears at the top of the Tracks Page. After you clear the track log, it shows 0%.
1. Press MENU twice to open the Main Menu. 2. Select the Tracks icon, and press ENTER to open the Tracks Page. 3. Highlight the Clear button, and press ENTER. A confirmation message appears. 4. Highlight OK, and press ENTER. 1. Press MENU twice to open the Main Menu. 2. Select the Tracks icon, and press ENTER to open the Tracks Page. 3.

determined by the jumpmaster based on specifications for the jump. A number of K values can be specified for different jumps. HAHO jumps use K-open while HALO jumps use K-open and K-freefall. Static jumps use K-static. K-values are based on the parachute canopy rating. Each parachute should be labeled with a K value. Common values may range from 3.0 for K-freefall to 48.0+ for HAHO K-open.
Constant Setup The Constant Setup Page allows you to fine-tune certain aspects of the planned jump. All jump types also can use a Percent Max to increase or decrease the range or their jump. Entries less than 100% decrease drift distance to the DIP while those greater than 100% increase drift distance. More experienced jumpmasters may choose to use smaller numbers while those less experienced may use larger numbers. Safety Factor is used in HAHO jump types to allow a margin or error for a jump. Safety factors are usually integer values, no smaller than two, and are

CD(Canopy Drift) measured while the parachute is open. DIP(Desired Impact Point) describes the location where landing should occur. Drop Altitudemeasures the altitude when the jumpmaster exits the aircraft, measured in AGL. DZ(Drop Zone) describes the area where the landing should occur. DZSTL(Drop Zone Support Team Leader) defines the individual in charge at the drop zone. FFD(Free Fall Drift) defines the distance traveled before the parachute is open. FTH Forward Throw Horizontal, describes the distance traveled forward due to aircraft speed.
Clicking the Goto HARP button begins the navigation process and takes you to the Wind Setup page if that information is missing or automatically setting up the route with the calculated HARP and then the selected DIP before taking you to the Navigation page.

GekoSmak is a GPS-based game that features you as the player piece. Periodically, gekos appear on the screen. Before the geko disappears, move toward the geko, and press ENTER to smack the geko with a hammer. If you get the geko, an ! mark appears by the hammer; if not, only a hammer appears. Field size choices are small, medium and large. Small fields are approximately 20 yards by 30 yards and large fields are 60 yards by 90 yards (about the size of an American football field). The difficulty levels are: Easy, Normal and Hard. These levels determine how often gekos appear. The pace quickens and values vary as difficulty levels increase.
This GPS game creates a virtual maze on the screen. You are placed at a central position in the maze and must explore the maze collecting flags. The lower- right corner of the screen tells you how many flags remain. The lower-left corner contains a timer showing the elapsed time. The difficulty level determines how much of the maze you can see at one time. Viewing less of the maze makes the game more difficult.

Nibbons

In this GPS game, you must walk around the board collecting the flags as they appear. As you walk, your tail grows. You may travel anywhere on the screen, but you cannot walk on your tail, or you lose a life. As an added challenge, you must also avoid the skulls that chase after you.
