CPA Function
To copy a route:

R
and use
O
to display the route catalog page.
2. Use K to display the route to which you would like to copy to. The route must be empty.

The CPA function calculates the closest distance that a route will pass to a refer-
ence waypoint, and helps when creating new route waypoints referenced to a NAVAID.
To calculate the closest point of approach (CPA) from the route catalog page:
1. Use
K
to display the route you would like to use for the CPA function. The route must
consist of at least two waypoints, and the reference facility must fall between the
waypoints of a route leg.
2. Press
C
twice and rotate
K
to select ‘cpa?’. Press
E
.
3. Use
K
and
O
to enter the identifier of the reference waypoint.
4. Press
E
. The bearing and distance of the closest point on the route will be displayed.
5. Press
E
to add the cpa waypoint to the route, or
\
to finish. If you do add the cpa
waypoint to the route, it will be named based on the reference waypoint plus a number (0-
9) added to the end (e.g., KMCI3 for KMCI). If the waypoint does not fall between way-
points on the route, the reference waypoint does not exist or a unique name cannot be
assigned to the CPA waypoint, you’ll be informed with the ‘Invald CPA wpt ____’ message.
