TERRAIN PROXIMITY PAGE
The Terrain Proximity Page is in the MAP group of pages and displays the following:
• Current aircraft location
• GPS-derived MSL altitude in increments of 20 feet or 10 meters, depending on unit configuration.
• Range marking rings (1 nm, 1 and 2 nm, 2.5 and 5 nm, 5 and 10 nm, 12.5 and 25 nm, 25 and 50 nm, 50
and 100 nm, 100 and 200 nm)
• Map Orientation (North Up, Track Up, DTK Up, HDG Up) - Displays ‘HDG Up’ map data unless there is no
valid heading
• Terrain - Displays information relative to current aircraft altitude
• Terrain Legend - Indicates the terrain elevation in colors relative to the aircraft altitude
Displaying terrain and obstacles on the Terrain Proximity Page:
1) Turn the large FMS Knob to select the Map Page Group.
2) Turn the small FMS Knob to select the last rectangular page icon.
3) Turn the Joystick clockwise to display a larger area or counter-clockwise to display a smaller area.
There are two terrain/obstacle viewing options available (relative to the position of the aircraft), the 360°
default display and the radar-like ARC (120°) display.
