One of the benefits of a moving map display is

being able to pan to different map areas and see
what’s out there. To get the most out of panning,
you’ll need to be able to zoom in and out while
you’re panning. This lets you move the map at a
faster speed and zoom in for waypoint details.
Once the pan function is activated, the cursor
highlight moves back to the zoom field. To adjust
the zoom range while panning:

1. Press the

E

key to begin range selection.

2. Use the

U

and

D

keys to select the desired

zoom range.

3. Press

E

to return to normal panning mode.

During panning, the crosshair represents a target

position right on the moving map, with the range
and bearing to the target displayed at the bottom
of the screen. You can also use the target crosshair
to mark a new waypoint position or as a GOTO
destination right from the map field. To mark the
target crosshair position as a new waypoint:

1. Press the

M

key to capture the position.

2. Enter a new name and route number if you wish.

3. Press the

E

key to return to the Map Page.

You can also use the target crosshair as an

instant GOTO destination. Similar to the MOB
mode, this function will mark and instantly set a
course for a new waypoint called ‘MAP’. To GOTO
the target crosshair:

1. Press the

G

key to capture the position.

2. Press the

E

key to confirm the MAP GOTO.

3. Press

Q

to return to the Map Page.

If you want to save the MAP waypoint, be sure

to rename it, as it will be overwritten the next time
a map GOTO is executed.
