As an introduction to the Argus, let's take a short flight.
Seat belts and shoulder harnesses fastened?
When you turn on the Argus, the first thing you see is
the "LIMITATIONS" screen. Please read it now
(upper left). After the Argus passes its self test, a
second screen (lower left) giving information about the
unit is displayed; it reminds you that you must have
your charts with you to be legal. This screen also tells
you the expiration date of the database. Once you have
pressed any button, one of two messages that warn you
of difficulties with the GPS may appear. If the GPS
hasn't been turned ON, the LRN DATA LOST
message will appear. If the GPS is ON but hasnt yet
"acquired," you will see the LRN NAV INVALID message. Normally these
messages will disappear quickly, but they are vital to alert you to system problems and
you should be aware of their existence.
