Display segment 1 changes somewhat when the map page (NAV 4) is
being displayed. See section 3.11.4.

Display Segment 2 (Page)

Aeronautical information is presented on the screen in the form of “pages”.
Segment 2 is where these pages are displayed. A page is a presentation
of specific data in an organized format. Various page “types” are used to
display related kinds of data. For example, one page type is NAV (naviga-
tion). NAV pages show information such as distance, groundspeed,
bearing, course, and other data relating to navigation. Another page type
is APT (airport). APT pages contain information pertinent to a specific air-
port such as name, city, state, elevation, runways, and communication
frequencies.

Display Segment 3 (Page Bar)

The specific page type and number is shown on the page bar at the bot-
tom of the display. Ten page types are shown on the page bar; however,
only the selected page type is shown in reverse video (white characters
on a blue background). In figure 3-27, the NAV 1 (Navigation 1) page is
being displayed in segment 2 and is annunciated as such on the segment
3 page bar.

You might think of the page types as the chapters in a book and the page
numbers as the pages within a chapter. Just as a chapter in a book may
have from one to many pages, a KLN 94 page type may have from one to
26 pages associated with it. There are, for example, 26 flight plan pages
(FPL 0, FPL 1, FPL 2, … FPL 25) in the flight plan page type and up to
eight airport pages (APT 1, APT 2, … APT 8) in the airport page type.

Figure 3-28 shows an example of an
APT 5 page. Notice the “+” sign in
the page identification. Whenever a
“+” sign is part of a page identifier
there will be two or more pages, all
having the same page number, used
to present all of the required informa-
tion. That is, all of the information
associated with a particular page
number doesn’t fit on the page being
viewed. In this case the “+” sign indi-
cates that there are two or more APT
5 pages. Figure 3-29 shows the sec-
ond of 10 APT 5 pages for KICT
(Wichita Mid-Continent Airport).
