The GNC 250 NavData
®
card contains over 100 map datums for you to use when
navigating. By default, your unit calculates positions using the WGS-84 map datum.
If you are using charts based on another datum, you must set the GNC 250 to use
the same datum. Using a map datum that does not match the sectionals you are using
can result in significant differences in position information. If you are using maps for
reference only, the GNC 250 will provide correct navigation guidance to the way-
points contained in the database, regardless of the datum selected.
