The FSMap instrument menu system

When pressing the FN function key, a list of main functions, such als

“MAP”, “TRAF”, “MSG” etc. is displayed. Each time you press the FN

key you will step through the list of menu items. After you press one

of the function “smart” keys (SFKs) at the bottom of the display, the

function keys change to provide options to control the display related

to the current menu option, now in green. Change the function keys

back to the menu list by pressing the FN key.

Menu list 1

MSG: Displays the message log. An amber MSG ﬂag will ﬂash until

the message is reviewed. The MSG ﬂag will remain in view as long as

the message log contains messages. New messages will be highlighted

in boldface. Use the “UP/DOWN” SFKs to move to additional messages,

if more than one page of messages exist. Press “Clear” to remove the

stored messages.

MAP: Displays the moving map. The SFK keys will present the functions

“In” and “Out” to zoom the map display, “Pan” to pan around the

map, and “Info” to display information about nearby airports and

navaids. The pan mode will be covered later in the chapter in greater

detail.

IFR: Will load the IFR map with the highest priority related to the

current aircraft position.

VFR: Will load the VFR map with the highest priority related to the

current aircraft position.
