Function
Use this function to access a menu of options that modify
the way navigation information shows on the display. In
this way, you may customize the Apollo 360 to best suit
your navigation requirements. The menu function also
controls many other important ways the unit operates.
Goto and
Nearest
Functions
The goto and nearest functions operate together. Press this
key once for the goto function or twice for the nearest
function. Use the goto function to assign a destination
waypoint, perhaps one you create, or a waypoint from the
Apollo 360’s built-in database. The nearest function,
always available when you use the goto function, provides
a list of waypoints nearest to your present position. These
two functions allow you to quickly and easily create a flight
plan, or change it while navigating.
