Map Panning

Another map page function is panning, which allows you to move the map beyond its

current limits without adjusting the map scale. When you select the panning function
— by pressing the small right knob

(

r

)

— a target pointer will fl ash on the map display.

A window will also appear at the top of the map display showing the latitude/longitude
position of the pointer, plus the bearing and distance to the pointer from your present
position.

To select the panning function and pan the map display:

1a. Press the small right knob (

r

) to activate the panning target pointer.

2a. Rotate the small right knob (

a

) to move up (rotate clockwise) or down (counterclockwise).

3. Rotate the large right knob (

d

) to move right (rotate clockwise) or left (counterclockwise).

4. To cancel the panning function and return to your present position, press the small right knob

(

r

).

When the target pointer is placed on an object, the name of that object will be high-

lighted (even if the name wasn’t originally displayed on the map). This feature applies to
airports, navaids, user-created waypoints, roads, lakes, rivers — pretty much everything
displayed on the map except route lines.

When an airport, navaid, or user waypoint is selected on the map display, you can

review information about the waypoint or designate the waypoint as your direct-to desti-
nation.

To review information for an on-screen airport, navaid or user waypoint:

1b. Use the panning function (as described above) to place the target pointer on a waypoint.

2b. Press

E

to display the waypoint information page(s) for the selected waypoint.

3. Press

c

to exit the information page(s).
