Default Newbie S-NAV question

Hi,

My guess is that the S-NAV needs repair. Gary Kammerer at ClearNav can
probably fix it for you. You can reach him through their web site at
www.clearnav.net.

You can download the S-NAV and GPS-NAV manuals at www.cambridge-aero.com.

You should also check out the free training/demo tools for L-NAV and GPS-NAV
on my web site. The L-NAV demo covers most of the functionality of the
S-NAV - but not the tasks - which would be done in the GPS-NAV.

So I bought a glider with an S-NAV&GPS-NAV not long ago, and I don't
really know how to use either. However, when I start up the S-NAV, the
unit thinks I am at 28300ft, when actual elevation is 434ft. Obviously,
it won't let me adjust the altimeter enough to get the right elevation.
On the startup "altimeter" screen, I set the pressure setting to the
same as my regular altimeter (29.92 or whatever), but the altitude
readout is still way off. Anyone run into this? Is it broken, or am I
missing a setting somewhere?
