1-1 CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 OVERVIEW The PCX5 Software Kit is designed for use with GARMIN GPS units which do not contain a Jeppesen aviation database (i.e., 40, 45, 75 etc.). The PCX5AVD Software Kit is designed for use with GARMIN GPS units which do contain Jeppesen databases (i.e., 55AVD, 95XL etc.). The PC150 Software Kit is designed for use[...]

1-2 1.2 CONVENTIONS USED IN THIS MANUAL Commands to be typed from the computer’s keyboard are in italics. The action to be taken is in all capital letters (e.g., “TYPE”). For example, “TYPE: PCX5 ” means you should type the word “PCX5” on the computer keyboard. Specific computer keys are enclosed in angle brackets. For example, “ CD[...]

WORLD.GRM Plot file consisting of worldwide geopolitical and coastal boundaries (NOTE: This file requires approximately two megabytes of expanded memory to load. It is provided for your own personal use and GARMIN assumes no responsibility for the accuracy of the data.) Due to the large size of this database, plotting efficiency will be decreased. [...]

2-1 CHAPTER 2 INSTALLATION 2.1 PACKAGE CONTENTS Your PCX5 Software Kit includes the following items: 1) Files obtained by installing software include: · PCX5.COM - Main program · README.TXT - May contain pertinent notes, information about the latest release · Sample data files · Auxiliary files required by PCX5 NOTE: The above files are in comp[...]

For DOS versions 5.0 and above TYPE: “ MEM <Enter>” For DOS versions prior to 5.0 TYPE: “ CHKDSK <Enter>” If you do not have enough memory to execute the software, there are several techniques for freeing up DOS memory. You should remove any unneeded TSRs (Terminate and Stay Resident programs). If your DOS version is 5.0 or abov[...]

2.5 PERFORMANCE CONSIDERATIONS The PCX5 software has the capability to load part of itself into expanded memory. This greatly increases the execution speed of the software. Additionally, some (or all) plot data may be loaded into expanded memory. Up to 16 megabytes of expanded memory may be used by this software, giving it the capability to display[...]

If this message occurs, the first thing to check is that your MS-DOS PATH environment variable points to the PCX5 program directory. If that is not the problem, then reinstall the software from the distribution disks. If the installation succeeds, then you can be certain all the files are present. If the problem still persists, then please contact [...]

If a plot is already loaded, another dialog box will prompt you whether to append to or clear the existing plot. Figure 4-3: APPEND PLOT DIALOG BOX A bar graph will be displayed as the file is loading. The ESC key can b[...]

4-3 As the file is loading, the PCX5 program may determine there is not enough memory to load the entire file. Should this occur, sufficient memory is not available for the PCX5 program to continue functioning properly and you should exit the PCX5 program immediately . Figure 4-5: MEMORY LIMITATION WARNING The title bar, at the top of the display, [...]

4-4 If the Error Dialog Box is displayed, PCX5 is trying to open a file not created by the current PCX5 version (i.e., created by either a different version of the PCX5 program or another software package). The data file will not be loaded and the error box shown in Figure 4-7 will appear. Figure 4-7: ERROR DIALOG BOX 4.2 SAVE PLOT TO FILE This men[...]

4.5 CONVERT TO DXF FORMAT This menu option gives you the capability to convert ASCII data files (e.g., track plots, waypoint and route files) into DXF format required for various CAD programs. To use this option, enter the information required for the file to be converted (drive, directory and file name) into the dialog box. A second dialog box wil[...]

The DXF Conversion Options dialog box will prompt you for conversion parameters. Select between “Metric”, “Nautical” or “Statute” to indicate the type of units into which you wish the data converted.

Figure 5-3: WAYPOINT EDIT DIALOG BOX Change the position of the waypoint either directly, by entering its coordinates, or in reference to another waypoint by selecting the referen[...]

Remember, waypoint changes only affect the displayed plot - you must save the plot to a file to save any changes you have made. An icon of a diskette will be displayed in the lower right corner of your screen to remind you that the current plot has been modified. NOTE: The PCX5 software waypoint editor will process up to a total of 500 waypoints to[...]

The first waypoint in the route will be highlighted (“selected”). Select other route waypoints using the left and right arrow keys. By pressing <Shift> plus the left or right arrow key, you can move between all displayed waypoints (including those not in the displayed route). You may also select any waypoint by clicking the right mouse bu[...]

To create a new waypoint and insert it into the displayed route, create the waypoint first from the Waypoint Editor (see Section 5.1). Insert the new waypoint into the route using the procedure described above. To delete a waypoint from the displayed route, highlight the waypoint to be deleted and press <Delete>. To view a different route fro[...]

Figure 7-1: PLOT MENU “Zoom In”, “Zoom Out” and “Zoom Window” control the size of the area displayed on your screen. “Zoom Extents” scales the plot to span the entire display area. “Pan Window” all[...]

7.2 ZOOM OUT This option enlarges the area of the map displayed on the screen, thus reducing the appearance of the plot. The Zoom Out function enlarges the plot display area to twice its original size (i.e., the distance from corner to corner represents two times the original distance). The accelerator key for Zoom Out is <Ctrl+O>. 7.3 ZOOM E[...]

7-3 7.5 PAN WINDOW This option shifts the boundaries of the map displayed on the screen. Either select “Pan Window” from the menu, press the accelerator key combination (<Ctrl+P>) or hold down the <Shift> key to activate Pan mode (and use the mouse). After selecting this option, the status line on the bottom of the screen will indic[...]
