Navigation Basics

This section explores the navigation function and
describes the powerful features it contains.

About the

Navigation

Function

The navigation function is always active. When you
use other functions, the navigation function continues
to run “in the background” calculating your present
position, navigating your programmed route (if
active), and alerting you to events or conditions
important to navigation. When you finish using other
functions and return to the navigation function, the
last navigation display used is shown.

About the

Navigation

Function
Displays

While you navigate, the Apollo GX gives you
information in the Navigation function displays. The
navigation information displays and sequencing rate
are user-programmable. See the Nav info section of
the System Functions chapter (see page 7-1) for your
options. The

LARGE

knob will select the higher level

Nav functions: Nav pages, Parallel Track Offset, GPS
Position,

Timer,

and

the

FROM/TO/NEXT Waypoints. The

look at the pages available for each function; a
diamond (

the display if more pages are available.

Nav Home

Page

The Nav Home Page is a default page that is the first
page available in the Navigation function. The Nav
Home Page is not customizable. The information in
the Home Page shows the Destination Waypoint
identifier, Estimated Time En Route, CDI, Bearing,
and Range (distance) to the destination waypoint.
