Note: The SN3308 requires a connection to a GPS receiver in order to display
the moving map. The map display, including the flight plan from the GPS1
receiver, will also be shown when NAV1 or NAV2 is selected as the primary
Nav source.
Internal Database
Non-flight plan data including airspace is referred to as the “internal
database” and is stored in the SN3308’s internal memory. The
internal database can be periodically updated from a Windows-based
PC or laptop. The expiration date of the internal database is shown
during the power on sequence. As this database is for supplemental
use only and not intended for primary navigation, it is not required
to be kept up to date. Database updates are available directly from
Sandel Avionics, and may be purchased online at www.sandel.com.
Newly manufactured units may not contain an internal database when
shipped from the factory. Your avionics installer should obtain and
install the most recent database prior to completion of a new
installation. The SN3308 will operate normally without an internal
database except that only GPS flight plan waypoint information will
then be displayed.
Map Controls and Displays
Information associated with control of the map is displayed as follows:
■
The
map status bar
is shown just to the right of the

shown at the top of the map status bar as “S”, “1” “2” “3”
