Active Route Page Options

Press MENU while on the Active Route Page to open the options

menu. You can edit the route using many of the options in the menu

such as Edit on Map (see

page 65

for information), Add Waypoint,

and Invert. You can also change the data fields to suit your needs.
You can also select an approach for your landing and set your fuel

flow (or plan your route, based on your current Usage Mode):
Select Approach—(Aviation Only) allows you to select the

final course segment of a published approach, replacing the final

destination airport in a Goto or route with the sequence of waypoints

for the selected approach. The approaches provide only the final

course segment, usually from final approach fix (FAF) to missed

approach point (MAP), and are based on existing GPS, RNAV,

VOR, NDB, localizer, or ILS approach procedures. All approach

procedures are flown as a sequence of waypoints in the route. To

select an approach and add the waypoints to the route, the final

destination in the Goto or route must be an airport with a published

approach.
Set Fuel Flow (Plan Route)—allows you to enter information about

your aircraft and route.

Position Data Page

The Position Data Page provides a quick reference for the important

data you want to show while navigating a route in Aviation and

Water Modes. The default page shows a compass ribbon, your

current latitude and longitude, the current date and time, battery or

external power indicator, and eight user-selectable data fields. The

compass ribbon is shown at the top of the page to show your current

heading with a dark, vertical bar. To stay on course, steer toward the

gray bar (or arrows) until it is aligned with the dark bar.
Press PAGE repeatedly to open the Position Data Page.
