and click the GPS tab. Select Use simulator or connect a GPS and select GPS

Why can’t I zoom in on the chart and still show my aircraft?

Route tracking mode shows the whole route on the screen at all times. Go to the
Chart Setup tab and change to another tracking mode.

Is there a way in FliteDeck to draw a user-defined boundary similar to what

is in FliteStar?

Currently, FliteDeck does not have a boundary tool.

What's the easiest way to get started using FliteDeck?

Use the setup program to choose a configuration (display style and size) and set up

your GPS. It is highly recommended to use the Interviews available from any tab in
the Setup program.

If you are using FliteDeck to only view terminal charts, practice setting up and using

the Clipboard. If you are interested in route planning features, start by creating a
simple route and viewing Route charts in the Terminal page. You can also connect a

GPS or use the GPS Simulator to view your position on the enroute and terminal
charts, and display information on the Enroute Nav and Emergency page.

Do I need a GPS to run FliteDeck?

No, but GPS input adds so much functionality to FliteDeck that we highly recommend

it.

Without a GPS, we turn off the features that rely on position information, including
direction, and speed (STI, Direct To button, Flight Information Blocks, Chart Track

button, Chart Orientation button, Nav Info bars, and the Emergency page). For
familiarization and training, use the provided GPS simulator.

Do I need FliteStar to plan routes for FliteDeck?

No, you can create simple routes within FliteDeck. However, FliteStar offers many
advanced route planning features you may be interested in using. To quickly get

started, review

.

Can FliteDeck use routes that I planned in FliteStar, or created in JeppView?

Yes. Routes that are created in either FliteStar or JeppView can be viewed and edited
in FliteDeck. Ensure that the RoutePack directory where they are saved is the same

one selected in the Routes tab of the FliteDeck Setup program.

What does "Off Rte" mean in the Enroute Nav page Profile View?
