Basic GPS Operation

Chapter 4

Notice that as you turn through letters, the KLX 135 automatically
fills in the identifier of the first waypoint in alphanumeric order in
the database which matches what you’ve entered so far (in this
case, Hall Airport in Kaufman, Texas). Go ahead and experi-
ment a little bit.

4.

Use the right outer knob to move
the cursor to the second
character and select an “O”
(figure 4-65).

5.

Use the same process to select
an “R” and then a “D”
(figure 4-66). You are now view-
ing the APT 1 page for KORD.

The KLX 135 feature of filling in characters of the identifier can be a
time saver! For a second example, let’s select Bloomington VOR
whose identifier is BMI.

More selecting a waypoint by identifier:

1.

Make sure you have turned the
cursor off from the previous
example. With the right knobs,
select the VOR 1 page
(figure 4-67).

2.

Turn the cursor (

B

) on.

3.

Change the first character to a
“B” (figure 4-68).

4.

Move the cursor to the second
character and select “M”
(figure 4-69). Eureka! When you
entered the “M”, the KLX 135
searched its data base for the
first VOR identifier beginning with
the letters “BM” and found BMI.
Many times you will only have to
enter two or three characters of
the waypoint identifier and the KLX 135 will furnish the rest.

5.

Turn off the cursor (

B

).
