When a waypoint name is highlighted, you can review information about the waypoint, list
waypoint options, or execute a GOTO right from the Map Page.
To select an on-screen airport, navaid or user waypoint with the panning pointer:
1. Use the ROCKER KEYPAD to highlight the desired item.
2. To view database information for the selected item, press ENTER.
3. For airports, use the ROCKER KEYPAD to highlight the various file tabs across the top of the page.
This allows you to quickly review field elevation, runway layout, communication frequencies and
available approaches.
4. To exit the information pages, verify that the on-screen ‘OK’ button is highlighted and press ENTER.
To GOTO an on-screen airport, navaid or user-created waypoint:
1. Use the ROCKER KEYPAD to highlight the desired item and press D WPT.
2. Press ENTER.
The GOTO function can be used anywhere on the map. If nothing currently exists at the map
pointer position, a new waypoint (called ‘MAP’) will be created at the pointer’s location before the
GOTO is initiated. You can also create a waypoint on the Map Page without selecting it as a GOTO
destination.
To create a user waypoint from the Map Page:
1. Use the ROCKER KEYPAD to point to the desired location on the map and press ENTER. A way-
point information page will appear, with an auto-assigned name (3-digit number) for the waypoint.
2. With the on-screen ‘OK’ button highlighted, press ENTER.
Once you are finished with the panning function, you can quickly remove the panning pointer and
re-center the map on your present position using the QUIT key.
To cancel the map panning function and re-center the map on your present position,
press the QUIT key.
