• Plan— The Route Review and Active Route pages also display trip-planning information for each leg or
the entire route. By entering your estimated speed, Fuel Flow, Departure Date, and Time, the unit
calculates your trip information and display it in the data field on the far right of the Route Review and
Active Route pages. Available information includes ETA, Fuel (to point), Leg Distance, Leg Fuel, Leg Time,
Sunrise and Sunset (at point location), and Time To (point). Distance and Course between legs are
automatically displayed for all route points.
To use the Trip Planning feature:
1. To select the desired planning figure, highlight the desired route from the Route List and press
ENTER/MARK to display the Route Review page or you if you are already on an active route, press PAGE
or QUIT until the Active Route Page is displayed.
2. One of eight available data types appears to the far right of each route point along with the distance and
course. Use the LEFT/RIGHT keys on the ARROW KEYPAD to cycle through the data types.
3. To enter planning information, from the Route Review Page only, press the ‘Plan’ SOFT KEY. Enter the
figures for Speed, Fuel Flow, Departure Time, and Departure Date. Press QUIT to return to the Route
Plan Page.
Fuel flow rates on your unit are measured in “units per hour”. System setting changes
for units of measure (statute, nautical or metric) do not affect the fuel flow measure. You
should enter fuel flow rates based upon available information for your vehicle (operator’s
manual, performance specifications, etc.) and make note of the desired units of measure
(gallons, liters, etc.).
Press LEFT or RIGHT on the ARROW KEYPAD to change the
data types.
