1.3.7 Crossed Airspaces Advisor
> GOTO + “CROSSED AIRSPACES ADVISOR”
When this function is enabled, every time a new leg of an active FP is entered, the navigator
warns with an alert whether the leg is approaching an airspace among the ones selected in the
function sub menu. The message contains the list of the approaching arispaces. As soon as a new
leg is entered, or a new destination is set with the Direct To function, an altitude check is made in
order to detect all the crossed airspaces in a 3D space at the current FIX altitude. The fix altitude is
registered, but when changes of more than 500 (five hundred) feet occur, the advisor triggers again
the check and saves the new altitude.
1.3.8 Database
The Database function allows the user to access information stored in the data cartridges on
Airports, VOR’s, NDB’s, Intersections and User Waypoints. Searching the Database allows the user
to activate GoTo Flight Plans and locate the item on the map. There are two methods of accessing
the Database information. The first is through the Database function within the Main Menu and the
second is directly from the Moving Map display (see Chapter 3).
1.3.9 Battery Compartment and Batteries
The EKP-IV is designed with a battery compartment for 6 rechargeable AA batteries. It is located
in the rear of the unit underneath the removable knee mount. The unit provides a ‘trickle’ charge
to the batteries when the unit is plugged into external power and powered ON. Rechargeable AA
batteries are required. Install them only after the batteries are fully charged. With fully-charged
batteries, the normal discharge time will be close to two hours, depending upon the condition of
the batteries, as well as the brightness and contrast of the screen settings. AvMap highly recommends
that NiMH AA batteries be used (available from AvMap/Navigation, or from any electronics shop).
DO NOT USE ALKALINE BATTERIES, as they may damage the unit and void the warranty.
