Frequency List

Figure 1-21 NAV/COM Page

The NAV/COM Page displays the available frequencies

(communications and navigation) for the departure airport,
any enroute airports which are included in the flight plan,
and the final destination airport. When using the direct-
to function, frequencies are listed for the airport nearest to
the starting position and the destination airport.

Displaying the frequency list for the
desired flight plan or direct-to airport:

1) Press the small right knob to activate the

cursor on the airport identifier field (in the GPS
Window).

2) Turn the small right knob to display the list

of airports (departure, arrival, and enroute) for
the flight plan or direct-to. Continue to turn
the small right knob until the desired airport
is selected.

3) Press the ENT Key to display the frequency list

for the selected airport.

A frequency listed on the NAV/COM Page can be

quickly transferred to the standby field of the COM
Window (NAV frequencies are shown for reference only).
This time-saving process prevents having to ‘re-key’ a
frequency already displayed elsewhere on the screen.

cursor in the GPS Window.

2) Turn the large right knob to select the desired

frequency from the list.

frequency to the standby field in the COM
Window. COM frequencies automatically go
to the standby field of the COM Window.

4) To activate the selected frequency, press the

COM Flip-flop Key.
