VFR Moving Map Operation

MAP ZOOMING

ZOOM IN

or

ZOOM OUT

changes the current map range to the next

value. Holding either soft key smoothly increments or decrements
(changes the range by 10 percent) through the ranges permitting the
user to stop at almost any range value desired. Pushing the opposite
ZOOM soft key steps the range in the opposite direction. The map
range value will be displayed on the

RNG

label.

The ZOOM IN and ZOOM OUT soft keys disappear when the
maximum or minimum limit is reached.

When the pilot operates the unit outside of the data base region
contained on the SD card and zooms into a range that requires the
high resolution terrain data, the pilot will see a purple background
screen color and a message stating “Outside Database Region”.
