Power

The AirMap operates from AA batteries or on 3 volts DC using an optional external power cable with a cigarette lighter adapter. If the power cable is used, the AirMap automatically switches to it if the external power is greater than the battery voltage. If the external power fails, the unit automatically switches to the batteries.

NOTE: Some pilots like to keep fresh batteries in their units, even when using the external power. If the power fails, the unit will automatically
switch to the batteries, thus keeping the unit on without interruption.

Warning! With earlier Lowrance Aviation units, some pilots liked to remove the cigarette lighter plug from the adapter cable and splice the exposed wires directly to their dash consoles. However, the AirMap 600 cigarette lighter adapter contains in the plug a voltage regulator to convert 12 volts down to about 3. Without this regulator, connecting your unit to a 12-volt power source will destroy the unit – and this damage will not be covered by your warranty.

How iFINDER Works

You’ll navigate faster and easier if you understand how iFINDER scans the sky to tell you where you are on the earth — and, where you’re going. (But if you already have a working understanding of GPS receivers and the GPS navigation system, skip on ahead to Section 2, Installation & Accessories on page 9. If you’re new to GPS, read on, and you can later impress your friends with your new-found knowledge.)

First, think of your iFINDER as a small but powerful computer. (But don’t worry — we made iFINDER easy to use, so you don’t need to be a computer expert to find your way!) The iFINDER includes a keypad and a screen with menus so you can tell it what to do. The screen also lets iFINDER show your location on a moving map, as well as point the way to your destination.
