Database Information
Datacards are inserted in the slot below the knobs and buttons. A
datacard may be inserted while the unit is off, or when powered-up.
When a datacard is removed and stored, be sure to keep it free from
moisture and dust. With a datacard installed, the Nav Management
Computer (NMC) can access information about Airports, VORs,
NDBs, and Intersections (INT). Other information used by the NMC
includes: Airspace, Magnetic Variation, and non-precision approach
data. User waypoints and waypoint comments you enter are stored in
the NMC.
