INTRODUCING THE GARMIN GPS 95
1.1 CAPABILITIES
The GPS 95 provides a host of powerful capabilities which were previously found only in much larger systems:
- Performance: MultiTrac ^TM receiver tracks and uses up to eight satellites with high sensitivity, fast first fix, and continuous navigation updates.
- Portability: Goes anywhere - air, sea or land. Built-in simulator for trip planning or practicing navigation skills anywhere.
- Ease of Use: Graphic screens and intuitive guidance from the display offer ease of operation.
- Convenience: Extensive database (Americas or International), covers airports, VORs, NDBs and Intersections. Update the database at home or in your office using your PC.
- Navigation: Stores 500 alphanumeric user waypoints; 20 reversible routes of 30 waypoints each. GOTO function sets instantaneous course to waypoint of your choice. AutoStore™ function builds routes as you go. A flashing message annunciator keeps you fully informed of your navigation status.
- Personalized: Customize your unit by selecting distance and speed units, Course Deviation Indicator (CDI) sensitivity, keypad and display features, map datums, and interface options.
- Low Power Consumption: Battery Saver operation draws less than 1.5 watts; provides up to four hours of continuous operation with the AA battery pack.
- Trip Planning: Analyze distance, time, and fuel requirements for your trip. Compute time of sunrise/sunset at your destination. Calculate density altitude before you take off and true airspeed as you fly. Vertical navigation guides you to your cruising altitude and puts you in the traffic pattern before landing.
- Alarms: An alarm clock and timer allow the GPS 95 to watch the clock for you. Arrival and CDI alerts help you safely navigate your aircraft.
- Interfaces: Interface with PC-based moving map programs using NMEA 0183 output, with Differential GPS (DGPS) receivers using RTCM (SC-104 version 2.0) input, or with marine autopilots and graphic plotters using NMEA 0180/0182/0183 outputs. An optional PC kit is also available to download user waypoints and routes to your PC for permanent record.
We encourage you to read this manual and experiment using the built-in simulator. This will help you quickly master the many features of the GPS 95.
1.2 AVIATION DATABASE
The GPS 95 features a Jeppesen database providing direct access to either Americas or International navigation information. When the GPS 95 is turned on the display will show which database the unit contains. Information contained in the database is as follows:
- Airports: Identifier, city/state, country, facility name, latitude, longitude, elevation, and fuel services.
- VORs: Identifier, city/state, country, facility name, latitude, longitude, frequency and co-located DME (or TACAN).
- NDBs: Identifier, city/state, country, facility name, latitude, longitude and frequency.
• Intersections: Identifier, country, latitude and longitude. - Communication Frequencies: ATIS, ground, tower multicom and unicom. (Multicom and unicom frequencies are grouped together under a “unicom” designation.)
- Runways: Runway designations, length, surface, lighting (including frequency for pilot-controlled lighting), and graphic runway configuration.
The Americas Database covers North, Central and South America. The International Database covers Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia and Greenland. (Hawaii is contained within both database versions.) Updates for the GPS 95 database, available every 28 days, may be purchased from GARMIN on a one-time basis or by subscription service. When ordering your first update, a cable is also required for connection to a PC-compatible computer. (Order cable separately at time of purchase.) Database update software will automatically transfer the latest information into your GPS 95 making the update process quick and simple. Your local GARMIN dealer may also be equipped to update the database for you.
1.2 BASIC PACKAGE
Your GARMIN GPS 95 basic package includes:
· GPS 95 Unit
· AA Battery Pack
· Detachable Antenna
· Remote Antenna Cable w/Suction Cup Mount
· Yoke Mount
· Surface Mount
· Carrying Case
· Self-coiling Power/Data Cable
· Cigarette Lighter Adaptor
· Permanent Installation Wire Harness
· Lanyard
· Battery Terminal Cover
· Owner's Manual
· Quick Reference Card
· Warranty Card
The basic package allows you to use your GPS 95 for both portable and fixed operations. The unit may be operated from the AA battery pack, or from an external power source (5-40VDC) using the cigarette lighter adapter or permanent installation wire harness.
Handheld Operation:
For handheld operation, the GPS 95 is powered by a AA battery pack which should be filled with four high quality alkaline batteries commonly found in retail stores. The detachable antenna is placed directly on the right side of the unit. The carrying case will protect your GPS 95 when the unit is not is use.
In order to track GPS satellites, the unit must be situated with the antenna pointed straight up and should not be blocked by objects or people. (Signal reception through thin fabric, such as canvas, may be adequate but degraded). When using the GPS 95 inside the cockpit it may be desirable to use the remote antenna cable for better satellite visibility. The detachable antenna is removed from the GPS 95 and replaced by one end of the remote antenna cable. The antenna is then placed on the other end of the cable and, using the suction cup mount, is situated where the best satellite visibility is possible. You may need to experiment to determine the best location for the antenna. (See Appendix C for removal of the detachable antenna.)
A lanyard is provided to prevent accidental dropping of your GPS 95. Connect the lanyard to the eyelet on the back (at the top) of the unit
Fixed Mount Operation:
A surface mount is supplied for panel mount installation. The lower half of the surface mount is also used with the yoke mount. (See Appendix C for instructions on yoke mount installation.) The unit may be operated using aircraft power through the cigarette lighter adaptor or the permanent installation wire harness. Note that there are three cable assemblies (not counting the remote antenna cable). The self-coiling power/data cable plugs directly into the back of the GPS 95. The other end of the self-coiling power/data cable plugs into either the cigarette lighter adapter or the permanent installation wire harness, according to your needs or preferences.
While using aircraft power, you may wish to leave the battery pack in the unit. In the event of aircraft power failure, the GPS 95 will automatically switch to battery power. If you do not desire to leave the battery pack on the unit, a battery terminal cover is supplied to protect the battery contacts. Remove the battery pack from the GPS 95 and slide the battery terminal cover on in its place. (See Appendix C for removal of the battery pack.)
In addition to supplying power to the unit, the permanent installation wire harness allows you to interface your GPS 95 with a PC-compatible computer or an ARGUS ^™ unit. When connected to a PC-compatible computer, the GPS 95 will provide navigation information for many of the popular moving map programs. (See Appendix C for connection of the GPS 95 to other devices.)
The following optional accessories are available for your specific needs:
- Rechargeable NiCad Battery Kit
- PC Database Update Kit
- PC Software Kit
Rechargeable NiCad Battery Kit:
A rechargeable NiCad battery kit is available for use with the GPS 95. This kit includes a rechargeable NiCad battery, an AC adaptor and a drop-in charger base. Using the drop-in charger base, the NiCad battery is charged in 12-14 hours (not to exceed 24 hours). The rechargeable NiCad battery kit allows you to use the GPS 95 portably for extended periods.
PC Database Update Kit:
The PC Database Update Kit allows you to update the GPS 95's aviation database (Americas or International) at home, or in your office, using a PC-compatible computer. The PC Database Update Kit includes the database diskette(s) and instructions. When ordering your first update, be sure to also order a PC interface cable. This cable, which connects to a COM port on your PC, is not part of the update kit.
PC Software Kit:
The PC Software Kit allows you to download route, waypoint and track data from the GPS 95 to your PC-compatible computer. You may also edit this data and upload it back into the GPS 95. With the software kit you can plot data files and/or display current position in real-time on a grid map. Data files can be printed for future reference. For planning purposes, the software kit provides animated satellite orbit displays and allows you to print a satellite visibility chart. The software kit includes both 3.5" and 5.25" diskettes, an instruction manual and a PC interface cable. This cable can be used with both the PC Software Kit and the PC Update Kit.
1.5 OPERATIONAL MODES
While using your GPS 95, you may select from one of three operational modes: Normal or Battery Saver modes for actual navigation, or Simulator mode for practicing/trip planning. In Normal and Battery Saver modes, typical time to first fix is less than 2.5 minutes. (If you have used your unit within the hour, it may take as little as 15 seconds.) In Simulator mode the GPS 95 will not acquire satellites, but will display a position based on the last known location or any other position that you designate.
Normal mode offers continuous navigation updates and should be selected when the GPS 95 will be used in a high dynamics environment (i.e., frequent speed and heading changes). The GPS 95 will typically operate up to two hours using the AA battery pack, or up to five hours using the optional NiCad battery pack.
Battery Saver mode, suitable for most applications, offers position updates that adapt to your needs while extending battery life. The GPS 95 will typically operate up to four hours using the AA battery pack, or up to eight hours using the optional NiCad battery pack.
Simulator mode allows you to simulate the operation of the GPS 95 while at home or in your office. The simulator mode can be selected while learning to use your GPS 95 and is ideal for planning routes and entering waypoints. Keep in mind that the GPS 95 is not tracking satellites in the simulator mode. YOU SHOULD NEVER ATTEMPT TO USE THE SIMULATOR MODE FOR ACTUAL NAVIGATION.

- Press the right or left arrow key until the desired letter is displayed.
- Press CLR if you enter an incorrect letter.
- Press ENT when all the characters are entered.
The GPS 95 features a keypad feedback tone which will sound each time you press a key. If you enter data which is not appropriate for the field, the feedback tone will quickly sound three times indicating an error. The keypad feedback tone can be turned off if you wish. (See Section 8.10.)
2.6 VIEWING MESSAGES
From time to time, the GPS 95 will use a message to tell you of conditions needing attention. When the GPS 95 has a new message, the MSG annunciator will flash. When this occurs, press PWR/STAT to view the new message(s). Press PWR/STAT again to see the page you were viewing prior to reading the message. (See Appendix A for a complete list of GPS 95 messages.)
While the MSG annunciator is flashing, the GPS 95 will also generate a tone to alert you of the message. (If your unit is connected to an external alarm, it will also be activated.) Messages that demand immediate attention such as an arrival alarm generate a quick tone that will not stop until you view the message. All other messages generate a slow tone that will cease after 15 seconds. The message tone may be turned off if you wish. (See Section 8.10.)
Important messages will remain on the Message Page after being viewed. If this occurs, the MSG annunciator will be in view but will not flash. (If no messages exist, the MSG annunciator will not be visible.) To review these messages, press PWR/STAT to reveal the status menu options. Then press the key underneath the “AUX” page option. With the arrow keys, highlight “Messages” and press ENT.
2.7 TURNING THE GPS 95 ON
When the GPS 95 is turned on it will automatically perform internal checks to ensure proper operation, begin acquiring satellites, and once a sufficient number are received, display your present position. To see this power on sequence, take the GPS 95 outside to a location that is well away from buildings and other structures that might limit its view of the sky.
After you turn your GPS 95 on, it will conduct a series of self tests and display the following notice:

The GPS 95 will still function with an expired database; however, you must exercise extreme caution and always verify that the database information is correct before use. (WARNING: The accuracy of the data is assured only if current. Pilots using an out-of-date database do so entirely at their own risk.)
Press ENT to approve the Database Page.
The Satellite Bar Graph Page will be displayed, and the GPS 95 will begin acquiring satellites.
After a position is found (and if no keys have been pressed), the Position Page will be displayed and the unit is ready for normal operation. The process of satellite acquisition is fully automatic and, under normal circumstances, will take approximately 2-3 minutes to obtain navigation information. (If the unit has
been used in the past hour, it may take as little as 15 seconds.) If the GPS 95 has been moved a considerable distance since it was last used, additional time may be required as the unit performs an AutoLocate™. AutoLocate™ will automatically locate satellites and compute your position regardless of your location or where the unit was last used.
When four or more satellites with good geometry are available, the GPS 95 will automatically operate in the 3D mode in which latitude, longitude and altitude are computed. If only three satellites are available, the unit will operate in 2D mode in which only latitude and longitude are computed. When operating in the 2D mode, the unit will use the last computed altitude or your last entered altitude. (Section 5.4 describes how you may enter the altitude.)
Your GPS 95 will automatically update satellite orbital data as it operates. If you have not operated your unit for a period of six months or longer, it will take approximately 15 minutes to search the sky and collect new orbital data. You will be informed when your unit is searching the sky with the message "Searching the Sky." Once satellite orbital data is collected, it will be stored in memory. The memory is maintained by an internal battery, therefore the data will not be lost when you turn your GPS 95 off or remove the battery pack.
If the GPS 95 cannot acquire enough satellites for 2D or 3D navigation, you will be informed with the message “Poor GPS coverage”. If this situation occurs, make sure the antenna is properly connected and not obstructed by nearby buildings or other structures.
2.8 TURNING THE GPS 95 OFF

A["PWR STAT"] --> B["turning off in\n3\nsolutions"]
To turn the GPS 95 off, press and hold the PWR/STAT key.
The Off Page will be displayed, the GPS 95 will perform a countdown and, after a brief delay, will shut off. All user waypoints, routes, and setup information that you have entered will be maintained while the unit is off - even if the battery pack is removed.
2.9 LEARNING TO USE THE GPS
95
If you are using the GPS 95 for the first time, you are encouraged to read Chapter 3 which introduces the GPS 95's waypoint and database features, Chapter 4 on the use of the GOTO key, and Chapter 5 for navigating to a waypoint. A sample trip is included in Chapter 5 to get you started on the use of the GOTO key and the various navigation pages available on your GPS 95. You may also want to read Chapter 8 on custom setups to configure the GPS 95 to your preferences. Afterward, you may want to read through the rest of this manual and make further use of the built-in simulator to practice with the advanced features.
CHAPTER 3
WAYPOINTS
The GPS 95 features a Jeppesen database providing Americas or International navigation information. (Refer to Section 1.2 for a specific description of information provided in the database.) The database contains information about waypoints. A basic waypoint consists of an identifier (up to six letters and/or numbers) and its location. You will have the opportunity to use waypoints extensively while operating the GPS 95. For example, you can build a route using waypoints, you can perform trip/fuel planning using waypoints, and you can even calculate the time of sunrise and sunset for a waypoint of interest.
The GPS 95 features four primary waypoint pages. You may select the desired page by pressing WPT and, if needed, the appropriate softkey.

The GPS 95 organizes waypoints into one of five different categories: airports, VORs, NDBs, intersections and user waypoints. This organization is much like that of a file cabinet in which each drawer represents a different type of information. For example, the airport drawer contains information on airport locations, communication frequencies, runways, etc. In order to view the information stored in a given drawer, the drawer must be opened or selected. When using waypoints on the GPS 95 the “drawer”, or category, is selected on a cyclic field. The following sections describe procedures used to view information for each category of waypoint.

3.7 CREATING USER WAYPOINTS

text_image
▶USR: TOWER1 H _°_ : _ W _°_ : _ REF: _ _ BRG: _° DIS: _ . _R ----LIST PROX MRST HPTWhen a waypoint identifier has been entered that does not exist in memory the GPS 95 will assume you wish to create a new waypoint. You may create a new waypoint using one of two methods: direct position entry (latitude/longitude or grid system) or relative to an existing waypoint.
In order to create a waypoint by direct position entry the coordinates for the new waypoint must be known and entered directly into the unit.
To enter the waypoint position directly...
- With the Waypoint Definition Page displayed (and user waypoint information shown), press the right arrow until the cursor is over the waypoint identifier field.
- Enter the identifier of the new waypoint using the alphanumeric and arrow keys. Press ENT when complete. The cursor will move to the position coordinates.
- Enter the position of the new waypoint. Press ENT after data is entered into each field. The number of fields required for position entry will depend on the position coordinate option selected. (See Section 8.7.) If latitude and longitude coordinates are selected there will be four fields if decimal degrees are used - two to define the hemispheres ("N" or "S", "E" or "W") and two to enter the latitude and longitude degrees. If latitude and longitude coordinates are selected with degrees, minutes and decimal seconds, there will be eight data entry fields to define the position since degrees, minutes and seconds are each divided into their own field. If a grid system is selected it will have a different number of fields depending on the format of the selected grid.
A new waypoint can be defined relative to another waypoint already contained within the GPS 95's memory. When creating a new waypoint relative to an existing waypoint, you will define a distance and bearing from the existing waypoint to the new waypoint location.
To create a waypoint offset from a reference waypoint...
- With the Waypoint Definition Page displayed (and user waypoint information shown), press the right arrow until the cursor is over the waypoint identifier field.
- Enter the identifier of the new waypoint using the alphanumeric and arrow keys. Press ENT when complete.
- Press the right arrow key until the cursor is over the reference waypoint identifier field.
- Enter the identifier of the desired reference waypoint (airport, VOR, NDB, intersection or user waypoint) and press ENT.
- Enter the bearing from the reference waypoint to the new waypoint and press ENT. The bearing will be true or magnetic depending on the unit setups. (See Section 8.7.)
- Enter the distance from the reference waypoint to the new waypoint and press ENT. The distance will be in nautical miles, statute miles or kilometers depending on the unit setups. (See Section 8.7.)
Once the waypoint location is created, the user comment field will automatically
be filled with the date and time the waypoint was created. You may enter a different user comment by placing the cursor over this field and entering the new comment with the alphanumeric and arrow keys, followed by ENT when complete.
You may also modify the position of an existing user waypoint from the Waypoint Definition Page. A user waypoint may be changed using the same procedures described above for creating a user waypoint, by direct position entry (latitude/longitude or grid system) or relative to an existing waypoint. When modifying an existing waypoint, the new position data is entered directly over the old data. For a given data field, once the ENT key is pressed the position data is updated. (NOTE: If a waypoint is being used for navigation, its position cannot be modified. An attempt to modify the position of such a waypoint will result in the message “Cannot change active waypoint”.)

Included is a graphic course deviation indicator (CDI), at the bottom of the page, which illustrates your position relative to the course. The current CDI scale setting is shown at each end of the CDI scale. (See Section 8.8 for information on setting the CDI scale.) A relative bearing pointer at the center of the CDI indicates the bearing to the waypoint relative to the current ground track (TRK). In the example shown, the current ground track is 347 degrees and the bearing to our destination is 339 degrees. The relative bearing pointer points slightly to the left indicating that our destination is ahead, but slightly to the left of our current direction of travel.
At the top of the Navigation Summary Page the current GOTO destination is displayed, or the “active leg” of a route when using the GPS 95’s route navigation features. (See Chapter 6 for information on route navigation.) During the process of acquiring satellites, the GPS 95 will not provide navigation data. The top line of the Navigation Summary Page will indicate this condition, as illustrated below.

- DTK up - Desired track up. The Map Display will be oriented along the course between the “active from” and “active to” waypoints.
5.4 PRESENT POSITION

text_image
TRK 347° GS 150° N 38°49.901' W094°53.386' ▶Time 11:22:44 CFG MAP MAU POSMAs mentioned earlier, the Present Position Page is automatically displayed when the GPS 95 is turned on and a position is obtained. The top line of this page displays your ground track (TRK) and ground speed (GS). The next two lines indicate your current position according to the coordinate format and map datum selected. In the example shown above, the position is displayed in degrees and decimal minutes of latitude/longitude. (See Section 8.3 for more information on coordinate format selections and Section 8.8 for more information on map datum selections.)
The bottom line of the Present Position Page is a cyclic field which can display either altitude above mean sea level (MSL) or current time (UTC or local). Select the desired option by placing the cursor on this field and pressing CLR.
When the GPS 95 is performing 2D navigation, the last known altitude will be used to calculate a present position. If the altitude is not accurate within a few hundred feet you should manually enter your altitude.
To enter the altitude (2D only)...
- Use the arrow keys to place the cursor to the right of "Altitude".
- Enter the correct altitude and press ENT.
During the initial satellite acquisition, the displayed position is the last known position stored in the GPS 95. If your position has moved a considerable distance since the unit was last used, the GPS will perform an AutoLocate ^™ (See Section 2.7.) This process can take up to ten minutes as the GPS 95 determines its new location. Alternatively, you may enter a more accurate initial position directly on the Present Position Page to speed up the acquisition process. (You may also change the position at any time while you are in simulator mode.)
5.5 SAMPLE TRIP
Your new GPS 95 is really very simple to operate. For the purpose of this demonstration is assumed that the factory default settings, including the selection of nautical units (knots, nautical miles, feet), have not been changed. If these settings have been changed, the unit may display different data than that presented here. (See Chapter 8 on unit setups.)

The GPS 95 offers a route navigation feature for you to navigate along a pre-defined sequence of waypoints.
The GPS 95 route capability allows you to create and store twenty routes, numbered 0 through 19, containing up to 30 waypoints each. Routes 1 to 19, the storage routes, can be activated to travel either in the order you entered the waypoints or in reverse order. Route 0, the active route, is the route you are navigating. The waypoint toward which you are navigating is called the “active to” waypoint. The waypoint immediately behind you is called the “active from” waypoint. The line that connects the “active from” and “active to” waypoints is called the “active leg.”
The GPS 95 features automatic leg selection which will select the route segment closest to your position as the active leg. The GPS 95 also features automatic leg sequencing. As you pass a waypoint in the route, the unit will automatically select the next waypoint as the “active to” waypoint.
There are 3 route pages. You may select the desired page by pressing RTE and, if needed, the appropriate softkey.

During your flight; as you reach each airport, NAVAID, landmark, or turn to a new heading; you may capture your position and add it to a route. Once you reach your destination you can then invert the route and follow the same course back to where you started. Or, you may want the route for future reference if you wish to make the same flight again.
To build a route with Autostore™...
- From the starting location, press AUTOSTO to capture the position. (NOTE: The unit must me in 2D or 3D navigation mode when capturing your starting position. If the unit is still acquiring satellites, and you press AUTOSTO, the last known position will be captured and saved.)
- If you wish to assign a different identifier to the waypoint: move the cursor to the waypoint name field, enter the name of your choice and press ENT. If you enter a waypoint name already used, you will be informed with the message, "WPT Exists ____" (where the blank will be filled in with the waypoint identifier). Enter a different identifier if this occurs.
- Select a route to store the waypoint in by highlighting the route storage number field and pressing CLR until the desired route number is displayed. If the selected route is not empty, the Autostore™ waypoint will be added to the end of the existing route. (HINT: Although the route storage number field is a cyclic field, to speed selection you may also enter the desired route number using the alphanumeric keys.)
- Press ENT to add the waypoint to the selected route.
- Repeat these steps each time you arrive at a location you wish to add to the route, up to a total of 30 waypoints per route.
CHAPTER 8
GPS STATUS AND AUXILIARY FUNCTIONS
The GPS 95 contains a vast array of functions, many of which you may custom tailor to your preferences. Additionally, the unit can provide current status information regarding the satellites being received and display messages relevant to your current operations. You may select the desired page by pressing PWR/STAT and, if needed, the appropriate softkey.

The bar labels are explicitly provided above the bars.The GPS 95 continually monitors the status of the satellites it tracks and shows that information graphically on a Bar Graph Display. Satellite numbers (1-32) are represented along the bottom of the graph; signal strength (1 to 9, weakest to strongest) is represented along the side. Once a satellite is received, a bar is displayed showing
signal strength for that satellite. If a satellite is visible, but not being received, the signal strength will be blank.
The receiver status is also shown at the top of the page. In this example, the unit is acquiring satellites. The following is a list of possible receiver status messages:
“Searching the Sky” The GPS 95 is in the process of searching the sky for visible satellites. You will also be informed of this condition with a “Searching the Sky” message.
"Acquiring Satellites" The GPS 95 is in the process of acquiring visible satellites.
"2D Navigation" The GPS 95 is in the 2D navigation mode. The unit will calculate a horizontal position, but not altitude.
"3D Navigation" The GPS 95 is in the 3D navigation mode and will calculate altitude
“Simulating Navigation” The GPS 95 is in the simulator mode. This mode should be used only for practice and trip planning. Never use this mode for actual navigation.
"Poor Coverage" The GPS 95 is unable to acquire sufficient satellites for navigation.
"Need Altitude" The GPS 95 needs altitude in order to start and/or continue 2D navigation. Go to the Present Position Page and enter the altitude. (See Section 5.4.)
"Not Usable" The GPS 95 is unusable (possibly due to incorrect initialization data or abnormal satellite conditions). Turn the unit off and back on.
When operating with an RTCM input selected, the Bar Graph Display will denote each satellite for which differential corrections are available with a “D” at the bottom of the bar. (See Section 8.11 for more information on RTCM input selections.) Furthermore, the differential navigation status will also display at the top of the page. There are two additional receiver status messages available when using

"3D Nav - Diff" The GPS 95 has calculated a differentially-corrected position, including altitude.
8.2 SATELLITE STATUS PAGE

The Satellite Status Page shows the ID, azimuth, elevation, and signal quality of each visible satellite in a table format. The receiver status, again, is displayed at the top of the screen. The second line displays two system quality values - dilution of precision (DOP) and estimated position error (EPE). EPE and DOP are advisory information only and are not to be used as absolute measures of accuracy. (See Appendix B for definitions of these terms.)
8.3 SATELLITE SKYVIEW PAGE

Additionally, DOP and EPE values are shown on the right hand side of the page. The display is always oriented "north up" and is useful in determining whether a satellite signal is being blocked by part of the aircraft, buildings,
mountains, or other obstructions. If a satellite is not currently being received, it will be highlighted on the display.

You may select simulator mode, normal mode, or battery saver mode. (See Section 1.5 for a description of each mode.)
Below the operating mode field is a reference waypoint field to define an initial position. In simulator mode you may designate a starting point from which the simulation will begin. In normal and battery saver modes, the initial position may be defined to reduce satellite acquisition time.
To define an initial position...
- Select the desired operating mode by placing the cursor on the operating mode field and pressing CLR.
- Press ENT to select the desired mode.
- Enter the identifier of the desired reference waypoint (airport, VOR, NDB, intersection or user waypoint) and press ENT.
- Enter the bearing from the reference waypoint to the desired location and press ENT. The bearing will be true or magnetic depending on the unit setups. (See Section 8.7.)
- Enter the distance from the reference waypoint to the desired location and press ENT. The distance will be in nautical miles, statute miles or kilometers depending on unit setups. (See Section 8.7.) (Hint: If a distance of zero is entered, the initial position will be at the selected reference waypoint.)
The Operating Mode/Nearest Airport Search Page also allows you to select the characteristics of the GPS 95's nearest airport function. Pilots of large, high-performance aircraft may direct the nearest airport function to ignore those airports at which it would be difficult, if not impossible, to land their aircraft. You may set the minimum runway length and the surface type for airports selected by the nearest airport function.
To set the minimum runway length...
- Place the cursor on the runway length field using the arrow keys.
· Enter the minimum runway length using the alphanumeric keys. - Press ENT.
To set the desired runway surface...
- Place the cursor on the runway surface field using the arrow keys.
- Select the desired surface type by pressing CLR. You may select from any surface (any), hard surface only (hard only), soft/hard surface only (soft/hard), or water surface only (water only).
WARNING: Be extremely cautious when selecting the nearest airport search characteristics, particularly if you select a large runway length and/or water surface type. These selections are designed for specialized aircraft operations and will tend to eliminate many available airports from the nearest airport list which might otherwise be useful in the event of an emergency.
8.6 TRACK LOG SETUP

text_image
ALARMS / CDI CDI Alarm: 0.5% ▶on Arrival: 5.0% ▶on Clock: 00:00 ▶off CDI Scale ▶±5.00 Steer To ▶d-bar PREU AUX NEXTFrom the Alarms/CDI Page, you may define three alarms (and turn them on or off) and configure the graphic CDI to your preference. Alarms are available for course deviation, arrival at a destination waypoint, and an alarm clock.
The CDI alarm will notify you with an alarm tone and the message “CDI Alarm” if you have deviated off course beyond the limit that you set. (This can be useful while flying in an airway or navigating a narrow channel.)
To set the CDI alarm...
· Highlight the CDI alarm distance field.
- Enter the maximum allowable course deviation distance.
- Press ENT.
- The on/off cyclic field is highlighted. If the alarm is not turned on, press CLR.
The arrival alarm will inform you with an alarm tone and the message “Arrival at ____” (where the blank is filled in with a waypoint identifier) when you reach your destination. The alarm distance will also be used to inform you when you approach a route waypoint with the message “Approaching ____” (again, with the blank filled in by a waypoint name).
To set the arrival alarm ...
- Highlight the arrival alarm distance and enter the distance from a destination at which you want the alarm to sound.
- Press ENT.
- The on/off cyclic field is highlighted. If the alarm is not turned on, press CLR.
The GPS 95 also features an alarm clock which can provide an alarm tone and the message “Alarm Clock” at a time that you specify.

The graphic CDI may be configured to the desired scale and steering orientation. Scale settings of ±.25 , 1.25, or 5.00 units (nautical miles, statute miles, or kilometers) are available. The scale setting represents the distance from center of the CDI to either end.
To set the CDI scale...
· Highlight the CDI scale field.
- Press CLR to select the desired scale.
The CDI “Steer To” orientation determines how you interpret the “D-Bar” when it moves. You may select a “Steer to >Center” or “Steer to >D-Bar” orientation. A “Steer to Center” orientation, in effect, displays your position as the “D-Bar” and the center of CDI is the desired track. Thus, when you are off course, you would steer towards the center of the scale. A “Steer to D-Bar” orientation is just the opposite. The “D-Bar” represents the desired track and the center of the scale represents your position. When you are off
course, you then steer towards the “D-Bar”. A “Steer to D-Bar” orientation is the typical setting for aviation use and will make the GPS 95's graphic CDI respond much like the CDI on your instrument panel.
To set the CDI orientation...
- Highlight the "steer to" field.
- Press CLR to select the desired orientation.

Experiment with your GPS 95!
- Now that you have started on a trip to the Dry Tortugas, why don't you take some time to experiment with the GPS 95? Press each function key to get familiar with the available pages. Examine the Active Route Page and the Navigation Summary Page as the simulation progresses. If you want, change the simulator speed. You won't break the GPS 95 even if you enter a speed of 999 knots.
- As you progress through the simulation, the GPS 95 will alert you with a message when you are within one minute of reaching the Dry Tortugas. When passing DRYTG, the GPS 95 will automatically sequence to the next waypoint, KEYW.
- At some point during the simulation you may wish to try the GOTO function. Suppose severe weather was reported in the Dry Tortugas area. You wish to shorten your trip by heading directly to Key West. Simply press the GOTO key and enter KEYW. The GPS 95 will set an instantaneous course and you are on your way to Key West.
- If you have not customized your unit, this may be a good time to review Chapter 8 for information concerning custom settings. Doing so will help you understand what each setting will do.
- If you wish to stop the simulation, simply turn the GPS 95 off. We recommend that you delete the route and waypoint created in this simulation prior to using your unit again. (See Section 3.8 for information on deleting waypoints and Section 6.5 for information on deleting routes.)
APPENDIX A
MESSAGES
The GPS 95 uses the Message Page to communicate important information to you. Some messages are advisory in nature, others are warnings that may require your intervention. This appendix provides a complete list of messages and their meanings. Please pay careful attention to all messages.
Alarm Clock - The alarm time for the alarm clock has been reached.
Approaching ____ - You are less than one minute from reaching the indicated waypoint.
Arrival at ____ - Your craft has entered the arrival alarm circle for the indicated destination waypoint.
Battery Low - The battery pack is low on power. AA batteries should be replaced or the rechargeable battery pack should be recharged for continued operation.
Cannot nav lckd rte - An attempt has been made to activate a route containing a locked waypoint The GPS 95 cannot perform navigation in this situation.
Can't Chng Activ WPT - An attempt has been made to modify the position of the “active to” or “active from” waypoint. The GPS 95 will not allow the modifications.
CDI Alarm - Your course deviation has exceeded the limit that you specified on the Alarms/CDI Page.
Dbase Mem Failed - The GPS 95 has detected a failure in its flash memory when using the PC Database Update Kit. If this message occurs, the database is unusable and the unit should be taken to an authorized GARMIN service center.
Degraded Accuracy - The accuracy of the GPS 95 position is degraded beyond 500 meters due to satellite geometry or data quality. Additional cross checking should be performed by the user to verify the integrity of the GPS position.
Final altitude alert - The suggested VNAV altitude is within 1000 feet of the final altitude entered on the VNAV Page.
Leg Not Smoothed- The upcoming leg is too short for smooth waypoint transitions. Expect a rapid change in the CDI.
Memory Battery Low - The battery that sustains user memory is low and should be replaced by an authorized GARMIN service center as soon as possible. Failure to do so may result in loss of stored data, including all waypoints and routes.
Need Altitude - The GPS 95 needs altitude to start and/or continue 2D navigation. Press NAV and enter your current altitude. The altitude you enter should be as accurate as possible. An inaccurate altitude will result in an inaccurate position and navigation information.
No DGPS Position - An RTCM input has been selected, but not enough DGPS data is available to calculate a corrected position.
No RTCM Input - An RTCM input has been selected, but no data is being received or the input data is in the wrong format.
Osc Needs Adjustment - The GPS 95 has detected excessive drift in its internal crystal oscillator which may result in longer acquisition time. The unit should be taken to an authorized GARMIN service center as soon as possible.
Poor GPS Coverage - The GPS 95 cannot acquire sufficient satellites necessary to provide navigation.
Pwr Down and Re-init - The GPS 95 is unable to compute a position due to abnormal satellite conditions. Power down the unit and verify that the position on the Position Page is within a few degrees of your actual position.
Prox Alarm ____ - Your craft has penetrated the alarm circle of a proximity waypoint.
Proximity List Full - An attempt has been made to add more than nine waypoints to the proximity list. The GPS 95 will not allow more than nine proximity waypoints.
Proximity Overlap - The circles defined by two proximity waypoints overlay. When entering the area of the overlap, the GPS 95 will alert you of the closest proximity waypoint, but not both. You should be certain this condition is desirable.
Proximity Waypoint - An attempt has been made to delete a waypoint for which a proximity alarm has been defined. You must remove the waypoint from the proximity list before the waypoint can be deleted.
Proximity wpt lckd - At least one proximity waypoint is locked because the waypoint has been removed due to a database change.
Proximity wpt moved - One or more proximity waypoints were moved at least 0.33 arc minutes due to a database change.
Received Invalid Wpt - A waypoint was received in an upload/transfer operation that has an invalid identifier or position.
Receiver Failed - The GPS 95 has detected a failure in the receiver hardware. If the message persists, the GPS 95 is unusable and should be taken to an authorized GARMIN service center.
ROM Failed - The GPS 95 has detected a failure in its permanent memory. If this message occurs, the unit is unusable and should be taken to an authorized GARMIN service center.
Route is Full - An attempt has been made to add more than 30 waypoints to a route. The GPS 95 will not allow more than 30 waypoints per route.
Route Not Empty - An attempt has been made to copy a route to a non-empty route. The GPS 95 will not allow you to copy a route to a non-empty route.
Route Waypoint - An attempt has been made to delete a waypoint which is a member of one or more routes. You must remove the waypoint from all routes before the waypoint can be deleted.
Route Wpt Deleted - A waypoint in a transmitted route does not exist in the database and has been deleted from the route.
RTCM Input Failed - The GPS 95 was receiving RTCM inputs, but the data signal has been interrupted.
Searching the Sky - The GPS 95 is in the search-the-sky mode. Allow the unit to complete its data collection before turning it off. This process takes approximately 15 minutes.
Start altitude chng - The altitude change entered on the VNAV Page is about to begin.
Steep Turn Ahead - This message appears approximately one minute prior to a turn that requires a bank angle in excess of 25 degrees in order to stay on course.
Stored Data Lost - Stored user data, including waypoints, routes, and satellite orbital data has been lost due to a low memory battery.
Timer Expired - The count down timer has expired.
Track Memory Full - The track memory is full. Go to the Track Log Setup Page to clear the memory.
Transfer Completed - Data transfer operations are complete.
VNAV cancelled - The VNAV function has been cancelled due to a change in the active route.
WPT Exists ____ - You have entered a waypoint name on the AutoStore™ Page that already exists in memory. Enter a waypoint name that does not exist.
WPT Memory Full - The waypoint memory is full. You should delete unused waypoints to make room for new waypoints.

GLOSSARY AND NAVIGATION TERMS
B.1 DEFINITIONS
This section provides an illustration of and definitions for the terms used in this manual.

text_image
WPT 1 NORTH DTK XTR AIRGRAFT NORTH BRG CTS TRK DIS TRN G WPT 2Velocity/time terms:
GS Ground speed. GS is the speed measured relative to a ground position; also known as velocity over ground (VOG).
ETA Estimated time of arrival. ETA is the estimated time you will reach the “active to” waypoint based on current GS. This time is selectable as either UTC or local.
ETE Estimated time enroute. ETE is the time it will take to reach the “active to” waypoint based on current GS.
Direction terms:
DTK Desired track. DTK is the course between the “from” and “to” waypoints. In the case of the GOTO function, the “from” waypoint is the location at which the GOTO function was activated.
BRG Bearing. BRG is the direction from your present position to the "active to" waypoint.
CTS Course to steer. CTS is the recommended direction to steer in order to reduce cross track error and stay on course. (See Section B.2 for an example using CTS.)
TRK Track. TRK is the direction of movement relative to a ground position.
TRN Turn angle. TRN is the difference between BRG and TRK. "L" indicates you should turn to the left, "R" indicate you should turn to the right. The degrees indicate the angle you are off course.
Distance terms:
DIS Distance. DIS is the great circle distance from your position to the "active to" waypoint.
XTK Crosstrack. XTK is the cross track error, or distance that you are off course. If the crosstrack error exceeds the CDI scale setting, the XTK distance will also be displayed on the appropriate side of the CDI.
V VNAV altitude. V is the recommended altitude at which you should be in order to accomplish a VNAV maneuver. This information is only available when the VNAV function has been activated.
Satellite terms:
DOP Dilution of precision. DOP is a measure of the satellite geometry quality and hence the relative accuracy of your position (one meaning the best and ten meaning poor).
EPE Estimated position error. EPE, which is computed using the satellite geometry (DOP), signal and data quality, receiver tracking status and other factors, is an overall measure of your position accuracy.
B.2 COURSE TO STEER (CTS)
Course To Steer is a GARMIN exclusive that recommends an optimal direction to steer that will guide you to the course and proceed efficiently along your route.
