Map Page
To eliminate the cursor and re-center your position on screen:
1. Press the QUIT key. The unit will return to position mode and the present position symbol will appear
centered on the map.
The cursor may also be used to ‘snap’ to on-screen waypoints and map items. When a waypoint
name is highlighted, you can review information about the waypoint, list waypoint options, or execute a
GOTO right from the Map Page.
To select an on-screen airport, navaid or map item with the cursor:
1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to move the cursor to the desired waypoint or map item (if there are
several waypoints grouped closely together, zoom in closer for a better view).
2. When a waypoint or map item is selected, it will become highlighted on screen, with the name and
position displayed at the top of the screen.
3. To view additional details, press ENTER. If the item is an airport, fi le tabs will appear across the top
of the page. This allows you to quickly review fi eld elevation, runway layout, communication frequen-
cies and available approaches. (Multiple fi le tabs will also appear if more than one object appears on
the map at the pointer location.) To save a map item as a waypoint, press MENU and select ‘Create
Waypoint’.
To GOTO an on-screen airport, navaid or map item:
1. Follow steps 1 through 3 above to display additional details for the on-screen item.
2. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to highlight the ‘GOTO’ button at the bottom of the screen. With this
button highlighted, press ENTER.
The cursor may also be used to create a new waypoint directly from the map. If nothing currently
exists at the map pointer position, a new waypoint will be created at the cursor’s location.
To create a waypoint with the cursor on an open map location:
1. Use the ARROW KEYPAD to move the cursor to the desired map position.
2. Press and quickly release the ENTER/MARK key to capture the cursor location (Pressing and holding
the ENTER/MARK key will capture the current location, not the cursor’s location).
3. The ‘New Map Waypoint’ window will appear. With ‘OK’ highlighted, press ENTER to confi rm the
new waypoint using the default three-digit name and symbol. (You can also change the waypoint
name and symbol as described on page 48.)
Creating a New Map Waypoint
With the pointer on a map feature, press the DIRECT TO key
(then ENTER) to navigate to that point.
