The Jeppesen database used in the GNC 300XL features standard terminal

arrival routes (STARs) and standard instrument departures (SIDs) that may be
placed into any active or stored route.

Available SIDs may be selected for the departure airport at any time in the active

route as long as the departure airport is the first route waypoint and the route con-
tains more than one waypoint. SIDs may be selected for the nearest airport when the
first route waypoint is not an airport or the route contains less than two waypoints.
Activating a SID will modify the waypoint sequence of Route 0. If you’d like to save
the contents of Route 0, be sure to copy it to an empty storage route first.
