provide approximately 800 pages

gency data.

Joystick

The joystick can be moved side
to side, up and down, and to the
45 degree points. The 45 degree
points will be ignored in checklist
mode.Joystick position data will
be transmitted continually to the
EFS MFD for use in MAP pro-
cessing, and will be used by the
CP 469A processor to enable
movement through checklist
pages (when the CP 469A is in
checklist mode).

A downward push on the joystick
will cause the cursor to move
down one line or item in the
checklist. The line down opera-
tion

advances

from

one

index/item page to the next, and
wraps within one level. Holding
the joystick down continuously
will cause the cursor to slew
down.

An upward push on the joystick
will cause the cursor to move up
one line or item in the checklist.
The line up operation advances
from one index/item page to the
previous page, and wraps within
one level of pages. Holding the
joystick up continuously will
cause the cursor to slew up.

A rightward push on the joystick
will cause the cursor to go to the
top of the next page. The next
page operation applies only with-
in a single level, and wraps to the
first page within a level. For

example, a rightward push while
on the last page of a list of check-
list pages will move the cursor to
the top of the first page in the list.
Holding the joystick right continu-
ously will cause the cursor to
slew forward through the pages.

An leftward push on the joystick
will cause the cursor to proceed
to the top of the currently selected
page, and subsequent leftward
pushes will move the cursor to
the top of the preceding pages.
Paging is within a single level,
and wrapping from the first to the
last page within a level will be
supported. Holding the joystick
left continuously will cause the
cursor to slew through the pages
in reverse.

Enter : ENT

The state of the ENT key is con-
tinually transmitted to the EFS for
MAP processing use, and is also
used by the CP 469A for check-
list purposes.

When in the checklist mode, the
enter button will behave different-
ly depending on where in the
checklist the cursor is located.
The general behavior of the
ENTER key is to enable the pilot
to check off everything in the
checklist by using the ENTER
key alone. In the checklist pages,
pressing enter on an unchecked
item will cause the cursor to
check off that item and proceed
to the next unchecked item in the
list. If no unchecked items exist
between the cursor position and
the end of the list of item pages,
