NOTE
Extra precision values are added to
normal values and normal displays
are not rounded off.
Normal
longitude-latitude
coordinates must always be loaded
prior to extra precision values.
Directions N or S and E or W are
established
during
normal
coordinate entry. Either key may
be used to initiate entry during
extra precision loads and values
will be added to extra precision
values without affecting direction.
It is characteristic of the computer
display routine to add 0.2 arc-
seconds to any display of 59.9 arc-
seconds. Value in computer is
loaded by operator.
14. Proceed to step 6 in procedure: Normal
Geographic Present Position Check and Update.
(c) UTM present position check and update:
NOTE
UTM data may be loaded in any order
and, until final entry, a value may be
reloaded.
1.
Data selector - UTM POS.
Observe UTM coordinates of present position appear in
data displays.
2.
HOLD pushbutton - Press (when aircraft
passes over known position reference.)
Observe HOLD pushbutton annunciator illuminates.
Coordinates in data display freezes at values present
when HOLD pushbutton was pressed.
NOTE
While HOLD pushbutton annunciator
is illuminated, TACAN, GPS and data
link updates are inhibited.
3.
Load zone and easting by pressing keys
in sequence, starting with E.
Example: Zone 16, 425 km East =E16 425.
Observe zone and easting in kilometers appear in
right data display as keys are pressed.
4.
INSERT/ADVANCE pushbutton - Press.
Observe
INSERT/ADVANCE
pushbutton
annunciator remains illuminated.
5.
Load northing by pressing keys in
sequence, starting with N or S to indicate north or south
hemisphere.
Example: North 4749 km =N 4749. Observe northing
kilometers appear in left data display as keys are
pressed.
6.
INSERT/ADVANCE
pushbutton
-
Press.
Observe
INSERT/ADVANCE
pushbutton
annunciator remains illuminated.
7.
INSERT/ADVANCE pushbutton - Press.
Observe extra precision display related to present
position northing and easting, to nearest meter, appears
in left and right data displays, respectively.
8.
Load extra precision easting value by
pressing keys in sequence, starting with E.
Example: 297 m East = E 297. Observe easting meters
appear in right data display as keys are pressed.
9.
INSERT/ADVANCE
pushbutton
-
Press.
Observe
INSERT/ADVANCE
pushbutton
annunciator remains illuminated.
10. Load extra precision northing value by
pressing keys in sequence, starting with N or S.
Example: 901 m North =N 901. Observe northing
meters appear in left data display as keys are pressed.
The value is always added to normal value regardless of
which key (N/S) is pressed to initiate entry. Normal
entry establishes the hemisphere.
NOTE
The W key may be used to
initiate
easting
entries;
however, the computer will
always interpret such entries as
an E input.
The extra precision values are
always added to normal values.
Any data inserted when HOLD
pushbutton annunciator is not
illuminated
