Non-Volatile RAM Tests
The non-volatile RAM validation code does the
following checks every time the unit is powered up.
Any tests which detect a failure reset the failed values.
Generally, the non-volatile RAM test pages are not
displayed, since in most cases the tests pass.
User Database Memory Failure
User waypoint checksums exist for each User
waypoint. If the checksums do not match, the User
waypoint is deleted. If this occurs, any flight plan
which references this user waypoint is also deleted.
In addition, User comment checksums exist for each
user-defined waypoint comment. The comment is
deleted if the calculated checksum does not match the
saved checksum. The following message is then
displayed until you press
ENTER.
