A full visual display test on each line of the display

and all of the annunciators is run next, preceded for

two seconds by the following screen.

Starting Display

Test...

The visual display incrementally lights groups of

pixels on the electroluminescent display.

Checking GPS

Signal

Strength

The unit shows the GPS signal strength screen in the

GPS Sensor function. Make it a habit to check this

screen to make sure that the unit is properly tracking

visible satellites before you fly. The Apollo GX

requires signals from at least four satellites to

calculate a 3D position fix (Lat/Lon and GPS

altitude). More details are available in the GPS

Sensor part of the System section of this manual, see

page 17.
