6.7 Task Mode
Task navigation mode is used for task manipulation. Navigation in this page is exclusively to
the selected turn point of the declared task.
A task can be created only from stored waypoints or airports. A task can also be
loaded from stored tasks. A task can will be saved to an active waypoint file (see
Chapter 6.1.5.4 for details how to set an active waypoint file). A task used for
navigation will also be declared in the IGC file.
Task mode has five pages. Use the PAGE selector knob to switch between pages. These
pages are designed to suit needs for racing tasks as well as for assigned area tasks with
minimum task time.
The first page is identical to first pages of the airport and waypoint modes. It shows
navigational data to the current turn point. However the final glide indicator always shows
the required altitude to complete the task.
On the second page additional data is shown:
 current netto vertical speed
 current track and groundspeed
 tDis shows the remaining total task distance.
 tskE shows the required glide ratio to task finish.
