GPS System Modes of Operation.
(1.) Off Mode. When the PULL OFF
node has been selected, power is removed from the
system, except panel lighting.
NOTE
Critical memory and other circuits which
cannot be turned off remain powered by
batteries in the receiver.
(2.) Initialize Mode. When the INIT (ini-
tialize) mode has been selected, position and time,
estimates can be entered via the keypad. Waypoint
data may be entered and examined, and option se-
lections made. No navigation functions can be per-
formed.
(3.) Navigation Mode. Selection of the
NAV (navigation) mode enables normal GPS func-
tions (satellite tracking and navigation), including
data transfer to and from other aircraft systems.
(4.) Test Mode. Selection of the PULL
TEST mode initiates a full command test of GPS
user equipment for line replaceable unit (LRU) fault
identification and isolation.
