WARNING! CAUTION When showing navigation data to a position (waypoint), a GPS unit will show the shortest, most direct path to the waypoint. It provides navigation data to the waypoint regardless of obstructions. Therefore, the prudent navigator will not only take advantage of all available navigation tools when traveling to a way- point, but will also visually check to make sure a clear, safe path to the waypoint is always available. WARNING! When a GPS unit is used in a vehicle, the vehicle operator is solely re- sponsible for operating the vehicle in a safe manner. Vehicle operators must maintain full surveillance of all pertinent driving, boating or fly- ing conditions at all times. An accident or collision resulting in damage to property, personal injury or death could occur if the operator of a GPS-equipped vehicle fails to pay full attention to travel conditions and vehicle operation while the vehicle is in motion. iv
Section 1: Read Me First! How this manual can get you flying, fast! Welcome to the exciting world of GPS! We know you're anxious to take off and begin navigating, but we have a favor to ask. Before you head for the plane, please give us a moment or two to show you how to skip around our manual for the information you need. (Tips start on page 2.) We want to help you get the best performance from this versatile little GPS unit — in the air, on the ground and on the sea! Before we go any further, we want to thank you for buying an AirMap 2000C. Whether you're a first time GPS user or a professional naviga- tor, you'll find that the AirMap 2000C includes a complete set of power- ful aeronautical mapping and navigation features, yet is easy to use. How easy? Well, if you've already figured out how to load the card and batteries yourself, and you just can't wait any longer, turn to the Quick Reference on page 39 and head outside with your AirMap! You can be practicing touch-and-goes at a nearby airport in only 12 steps.  Not in that big of a hurry? Good, because we really recommend you practice a bit before taking your AirMap aloft. The AirMap 2000C is a powerful GPS+WAAS receiver, but its slim silhouette is crammed with lots of extra features and value. You don't need to learn them all right away, but a little practice on the ground will help you become familiar with AirMap's capabilities — and make you a safer pilot. Flying, of course, is why you bought an AirMap, but it's like having three differ- ent GPS receivers in one. Here are the other two reasons why. Need business or pleasure travel directions or phone numbers after landing? You don't need another GPS — when you leave the cockpit, just move your AirMap into your car and take advantage of the fully- functional Land Navigation Mode. With your own custom-built Map- Create 6 map, your AirMap can use a massive searchable Point of Interest database of businesses and attractions to lead you to your final destination. (Land Mode Operation is described in Section 4; Searching is covered in Section 6.) And AirMap performance doesn't stop at the water's edge. If your des- tination is a boating or fishing adventure, your AirMap will help you safely navigate the Great Lakes and coastal U.S. waters with our 70,000-item database of marine navigation aids, wrecks and obstruc- tions. (This also requires a MapCreate map; functions are discussed in Section 4. The MapCreate manual has an Easy Mode Quick Reference of its own; it'll help you make a map in just 6 steps.) 1
Whether your AirMap 2000 is the only GPS in the cockpit or backing up an in-panel display, you're using the most versatile and most affordable color-screen GPS receiver in the aviation market today. Our goal for this book is to get you in the air (or out on the road) fast, with a minimum of fuss. Like you, we'd rather spend more time flying, and less time reading the manual! So, we designed our book so that you don't have to read the whole thing from front to back for the information you want. At the start (or end) of each segment, we'll tell you what content is coming up next. If it's a concept you're already familiar with, we'll show you how and where to skip ahead for the next important topic. You may be the button-pushing type who just likes to play with the GPS first, before peeking inside the manual. That’s fine, because Air- Map menus have a pop-up Help feature that will answer many of your questions. If this is your learning style, turn to the installation instruc- tions in Section 2, then step outdoors with your unit. When you come to a menu command you want to learn more about, jut turn to the Table of Contents or the Index and look it up. The manual is organized into six sections. If you’re new to GPS, prefer a tutorial approach to learning or just want to explore more of the awe- some features in your AirMap, we suggest you skim some of these sec- tions more closely. This first section is an introduction to AirMap, GPS and WAAS. It tells you the basics you need to know before you can make AirMap look around and tell you where you are.  Section 2, Installation, will help you get the power and MultiMedia Card (MMC) correctly installed in your AirMap. (The card contains the Jeppesen Americas and Lowrance Obstructions aeronautical data- bases.) We'll also tell you how to install the RAM mounting bracket on a yoke and the remote active antenna in an aircraft window or on top of the instrument panel.  Section 3 is really the heart of our book, Aviation Mode Operation. It will introduce you to the basic airborne GPS functions. This section in- cludes the one-page Aviation Mode Quick Reference we mentioned ear- lier. The rest of Section 3 contains short, easy-to-scan lessons that fol- low one another in chronological order. They're all you'll need to know to get in the air quickly. Aviation Mode instructions are only 38 pages long, and these lessons will meet the navigation needs of many pilots. But, after you've learned the basics (or if you already have some GPS experience), you may want 2
