Configuration Module in KLN 94

[Louis]

I have a KLN 94 GPS that works.  I successfully updated the database.  I cycled power to the set after the update and one of the startup screens still says "GPS for VFR use Only GPS Approaches Disabled ACKNOWLEDGE?".  I thought with the new database I would regain some capability but apparently the configuration module housed on the back of the unit is a stand alone module that determines that capability and is programmed during setup of the unit.  I would like to have non-precision approach capability with the GPS as that is the only approach available to my home field.  How do you go about getting the configuration module to reflect and IFR capable unit?  I know certain annunciators and interfaces are required in order for the unit to be used for IFR purposes.  Is a visit to an avionics shop the only way to fix this problem?
