Height above ground

The SYS'NAV is able to tell you how high from the ground you are thanks to topography data
recorded by the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission realized in 2000 by Endeavour space
shuttle (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shuttle_Radar_Topography_Mission
To send topography data into your instrument :
1) You must go to the dedicated page thanks to the SYS PC Tool, by clicking on
"Topography  Download a topography".
2) This will bring you to a webpage. Move the red rectangle to the place where you're flying, and
download the data.
3) Turn on and connect your SYS'NAV with the USB cable.
4) Then go back to the SYS PC Tool, and click on "Topography  Send a topography", and
select the file you previously downloaded.
Caution, height above the ground has a precision of ±20m, plus
the precision of GPS (a few meters).
To display your height above ground, this information must be included in your screen
configuration (see previous chapter).
