Flight Planning Page: Crossfill
Select Crossfi ll? from the Default Nav page or Flight Plan page by pressing the m
key or while on the Flight Planning page by scrolling down to Crossfi ll and pressing
E .
Automatic Operation: If both units are set to automatic, a change in the active fl ight
plan of one unit will also be seen in the other. Initiating a direct-to to a waypoint on one
unit will also initiate a direct-to to the same waypoint on the other unit.
If one unit is set for automatic crossfi ll and the other is set for manual crossfi ll, then
only the auto unit will automatically send data to the manual unit. In this confi guration,
the auto unit could be thought of as the master unit.
Manual Operation: If manual operation is desired, the pilot must invoke all trans-
fers from that unit. When a unit is confi gured for automatic transfer, a manual transfer
can also be done on command. If either of the messages “data transfer error” or “data
transfer cancelled” are received during an automatic or manual transfer, the pilot must
force another transfer.
To transfer flight plans or user waypoints to/from a second 400 Series unit:
1. Select “Crossfill” from the flight planning page, using the steps described on page 136.
2. The flashing cursor highlights the method field. Rotate the small right knob (
a ) to select
“Auto” or “Manual”. “Auto” will automatically transfer any selection of (or any change to) a
direct-to destination or active flight plan to a second 400 or 500 Series Garmin unit.
