discussed above). If the last "E" in the ETE label is in upper case the display
format is HH:MM, hours and minutes. This is switched automatically between
HH:MM and MM:SS (minutes and seconds) depending on the results of RNG/GS
(distance/closing velocity)
calculation.
3.2.9.3 ETe (Estimated Time En-route, MM:SS)
This field is identical to the ETE field
except the format is MM:SS. This
format is automatically displayed
when the RNG/ CLOSING
VELOCITY calculation indicates the time to the next waypoint is less than 60
minutes from the current time.
3.2.9.4 RNG (Range to Waypoint)
This field contains the distance
remaining to the current “TO”
waypoint with the least significant digit
being in tenths of a mile. If the
distance is over 100 miles the least significant digit is in units of miles (nautical or
statute, depending upon how you have set your GPS). This field is limited to a
maximum value of 999 miles.
3.2.9.5 Waypoint
The waypoint identifier currently
programmed as the “TO” waypoint is
presented in this field. Up to six
alphanumeric characters are available
for this data field, allowing for intersection and user waypoint identifications. This
field will flash at a 2 PPS rate for approximately 10 seconds when past the last
waypoint in the route or past the last GOTO waypoint.
3.2.9.6 Digital Rate of Turn Display
A digital graphic representing the
current yaw rate is presented to the
pilot when this field is selected. On
the EZ Pilot II the pilot has the setup
option of using either the small rate of turn display, or the large rate of turn
display. The limit on this rate is approximately ±4.5 degrees per second full
scale. A three degree per second turn rate is realized when the digital graphic on
the small display is at the last horizontal segment in either direction. On the large
display the 3 deg / sec rate is denoted by the tip of the arrow presented in the
display line.
3.2.9.7 DIS?
DIS? is displayed in this field
whenever the maximum distance in
the GPS data stream is greater than
999 miles. Tracking functions are not
affected by this condition.
