Data Link Request Log Page (GDL 49 Only)
The Data Link Request Log Page is used to display the data that was requested. When a request is
received, a check mark is placed in the box.
Sending Position Reports (GDL 49 Only)
The Data Link allows for accurate location tracking of your aircraft by sending your position manu-
ally or automatically to the EchoFlight web site (www.EchoFlight.com) for use by third-party EchoFlight
customers.
To Send Your Position:
1. Select the Data Link Page.
2. Highlight ‘Position Report’ and press
ENT. The ‘Position Report’ Page is displayed with the following six
fields:
• Nearest VOR — Nearest VOR identifier.
• Distance — The distance from the nearest VOR.
• Radial — The radial from the nearest VOR.
• Position — Displays your current position expressed in Latitude and Longitude.
Auto Request — This field is used to set the time interval for the system to automatically
send your position. The time options are OFF, 10 min, 15 min, 20 min, 30 min, 45 min,
and 1 hr. When an auto request time is selected, the first report will be sent after the speci-
fied time has elapsed from when the field was set (as opposed to immediately sending a
report). Note that in order to take advantage of Echo Flight’s Automatic Weather Delivery
(AWD) service, the time interval must be set to 15 minutes.
• Manual Send? — This field is used to send out a current single position report.
The Data Link Log Page is selected from the Data
Link Page, for GDL 49 units only.
The Data Link Request Log Page shows the type
of data that was requested and the time of the
request.
