3.

Once you have entered the
complete identifier, press

.

The display will change to the
waypoint page for the waypoint
you entered (figure 3-60).

4.

If this is the waypoint you intended to enter, press

F

again.

The display will change back to the SET 1 page.

NOTE: As an alternative, you can also enter the approximate lati-
tude and longitude of your present position directly on the SET 1

page instead of entering a waypoint.

5.

With the right inner knob, position
the cursor over Ok?, if it is not
already there (figure 3-61).

6.

Press

F

to approve the initial position. The cursor will

automatically be removed from the screen.

NOTE: If the KLX 135A is in the Take-Home mode, you are allowed
to enter the groundspeed (kt) and heading (°) fields in order to simu-

late flight (figure 3-62). They are not
used for actual initialization in an
aircraft. However, entering a ground
speed will allow the KLX 135A to “fly”
along the active flight plan (or to a
direct to waypoint) starting from the
initialization waypoint. A heading
may be entered in the initial heading field while in the Take-Home
mode if the one offered is not desired. See

section 4.7 for more

details on the Take-Home mode.

7.

Select the NAV 2 page. When the KLX 135A reaches the NAV
ready status and is therefore able to navigate, the NAV 2 page
will display the present position. Verify that the latitude and
longitude or the waypoint, radial, and distance display of present
position are correct.
