location. Simply use the arrow keys to position the cursor over the
object or place. The distance, measured in a straight line, appears in
the data box at the bottom of the map. Press
EXIT to clear the cursor.
Selecting Any Map Item With the Cursor
1. Use the zoom keys and the arrow keys to move around the map and
find the item you wish to select.
2. Use the arrow keys and center the cursor cross-hair on the desired ob-
ject. On most items, a pop-up box will give the name of the selected item.
You will also notice a black ring surrounds the item as it becomes se-
lected. Once that happens, if you press
FIND the Find Menu will pop up
with an extra option at the top of the list:
SELECTED ITEM. Press ENT to see
the Information screen for the selected item.
Searching
Now that you've seen how AirMap can find where you are, let's search
for something somewhere else. Searching is one of the most powerful
features in the Lowrance GPS product line.
In this example, we'll look for the nearest VOR. For more information
on different types of searches, refer to Sec. 6, Searching.
NOTE:
This example requires the Jeppesen database included with your
AirMap.
After AirMap has acquired a position:
1. Press
FIND|↓ to FIND VORS|ENT.
2. You could search the VOR category by any of these four criteria (by
Nearest, by Name, by Identifier or by City), but in this example we will
just search for nearest. When the Find By menu pops up, press
ENT.
3. AirMap says it is calculating, then a list of VORs appears, with the
closest at the top of the list, and the farthest at the bottom of the list.
The nearest is highlighted.
Find VORs Menu, left; Search Criteria menu, center; and
list of the nearest VORs, right.
