If you have a ground speed your

Bendix/King unit will calculate the time to
reach the tip of the on screen pointer.

This information is displayed in the PETE
(or Pointer ETE) field. If you wish to

invoke the DIRECT TO function press

the DIRECT TO key.
The unit will then provide you with full

navigation information to reach this point.
Alternatively if you wish to obtain more

information on a specific data point, whether it is an airport, a section of controlled
airspace or a beacon, move the pointer onto it and press the MORE INFO key.
Once the pointer has been activated by pushing the joystick it will remain active for 30
seconds; after which time it will automatically reset if not moved. Alternatively you can

force a reset by pressing RESET STICK
