NAV: NAVIGATION PAGES (right screen)
The right group navigation pages viewed on the right side screen contain all the same information as
the left group navigation pages. However, there are 2 differences: with the right group pages you
use the right buttons and knobs to enter data on the NAV 4 page for vertical navigation. The
sequence and usage is the same. The other difference is that the RIGHT CURSOR BUTTON must be
clicked in order to change the range factor of the moving map, which is done as before using the
LEFT INNER KNOB. If the left NAV page is set to NAV 5, zooming on the right screen map will cause
the NAV 1 page to be displayed on the left.
APT: AIRPORT PAGES
The airport pages contain more information than any of the other Page Group pages. There are 8
airport pages that contain information about airport longitude and latitude, elevation, approach
types available, runway lengths and directions, COM and NAV frequencies, and available services.
The airport pages are also used to choose, load, and activate an approach. In addition, there are 9
nearest airport pages containing information such as longest runway length, direction to or from,
and distance. The frequencies page, APT 4, is the default screen displayed when the unit is powered
up, and lists the various frequencies of the current airport location for easy access.
APT 1: Airport 1 Page (APT 1)
Fig8.1
The airport 1 page displays information specific to the user-entered airport listed in the top line. The
user can enter the ICAO code for any airport in the data bank at any time regardless of the flight
navigation status. Information includes the airport name, type, and latitude and longitude. There are
5 lines of information.
• Line 1: Displays the user-entered ICAO code of the airport desired.
• Line 2: Displays the chosen airport name.
• Line 3: Displays the chosen airport type. Choices include public, military, and private.
• Line 4: Displays the chosen airport latitude.
• Line 5: Displays the chosen airport latitude.
