1. When the effective or expiration date is the current day, the following
message is displayed at the bottom of the page: “Check local rules for
database effective times.”
2. ChartView does not have “Effective” dates.
5.1.4 Selecting a Chart
The G500/600 will only allow the pilot to select the chart type in normal
mode if it is configured for ChartView. When in-air, the pilot cannot select the
field to change the chart source, and a small message is displayed underneath the
Chart Type line that reads “Chart Type can only be changed when on ground”.
The ability to select a chart type is absent from normal mode if configured for
FliteCharts.
5.1.4.1 Selecting FliteCharts or ChartView
When configured during installation and when both chart types are available,
you can select which chart type will be used. Only one chart type can be used
at a time.
