Retrieving Airspace Information

Panning and pointing may also be used to retrieve information on airspaces depicted on the map.

Once the panning pointer is placed on an open area within an airspace, the entire airspace, or airspace
sector, is highlighted. A text box adjacent to the panning pointer will indicate the airspace type and
floor/ceiling limits. Additional information, including communication frequencies, is available from the
waypoint information pages.

To retrieve airspace information from the Map Page:

1. Use the ROCKER KEYPAD to select an open area within the desired airspace’s boundary. The

boundary line is highlighted and a window appears showing airspace type and floor/ceiling limits.

2. To display additional information, such as controlling agency, press ENTER. Communication

frequencies may then be displayed by highlighting the on-screen ‘Frequencies’ button and pressing
ENTER. Or, with the on-screen ‘OK’ button highlighted, press ENTER to return to the Map Page.

Easy Screen Decluttering

You can select the desired level of map detail using the ‘Setup Map’ option described on the

following page. You may, however, wish to temporarily remove some map detail in congested areas.
There are three declutter settings which will remove the background detail (lakes/rivers/highways),
airspace boundaries, and—at the highest declutter level—all map detail except those waypoints which
are part of your selected route. Map decluttering is selected with the ENTER key.

To quickly declutter the Map Page (Aviation Mode only):

1. Press ENTER. Background detail—including highways, cities, rivers & smaller lakes—is removed from

the map display. This declutter setting is identified by ‘CLEAR -1’ appearing below the map scale.

2. Press ENTER again. All background and airspace boundary detail is removed from the map display.

‘CLEAR -2’ appears below the map scale.

3. Press ENTER again. Only the waypoints which are part of the current GOTO or route appear on the

map display. ‘CLEAR -3’ appears below the map scale.

4. Press ENTER again to return ALL detail to the map display.

When the panning cursor is placed within the boundaries of
an airspace, the airspace name, airspace type and floor/
ceiling limits appear in a text window.

Press ENTER to declutter the map. There are three levels
of decluttering, indicated directly below the map scale
(‘CLEAR -1’ in this example).
