BULL ID [1L]:
Bulls Eye waypoint identifier (5 characters max.). Entry of an ID triggers a search in all the FMS
databases for the requested waypoint. Once the selected waypoint is determined, the ID/POS, BRG/DIS and
TYPE fields are updated with the waypoint data. The ident is reset to BULL when a manual entry is performed
on the POS, BRG/DIS or REF ID/POS/RAD/DIS fields. Entering DELETE in this field will delete the Bulls Eye
waypoint entry and reset all fields to their default values. The default value for this field is BULL.
POS [1R]:
Bulls Eye waypoint position. Manual entry forces default value to appear in the BULL ID, REF WPT
ID, REF WPT POS and RAD/DIS fields and automatically updates the BRG/DIS field. The default value is
boxes. This field also displays ACT RTE in reverse white video when the Bulls Eye waypoint is present in the
active route. Only modification to a manually defined Bulls Eye waypoint is allowed in this state.
BRG/DIS [2L]:
Bearing and distance from the current aircraft position to the Bulls Eye waypoint. Manual entry
forces default value to appear in the BULL ID, REF WPT ID, REF WPT POS, and RAD/DIS fields, and
automatically updates the POS field. BRG and DIS values may be entered individually or simultaneously; a ‘/’
symbol preceding a value in the scratchpad indicates only the DIS value must be updated. The values will be
recomputed and displayed at a minimum rate of once every second. The default values are dashes, and the
minimum/maximum values for the bearing are 0/360 degrees and 0/999 NM for the distance.
REF WPT ID [4L]:
Reference waypoint identifier with dashes as default value. Entry of an ID triggers a search
in all the FMS databases for the requested waypoint. Once the selected waypoint is determined, its position will
be displayed in the REF WPT POS field, the RAD/DIS and the BULL ID will be reset to their default values and
the POS and BRG/DIS fields will be automatically updated. Entering a moving waypoint as a reference will use
the moving waypoint's position computed at the moment of the entry.
RAD/DIS[4R]:
Radial/distance from the reference position to the desired Bulls Eye waypoint position. The
values are blanked when no REF WPT POS is defined, otherwise zeros are displayed as the default values. No
entries are allowed when the fields are blanked. Manual entry automatically updates the POS and BRG/DIS
fields. RAD and DIS values may be entered individually or simultaneously; a ‘/’ symbol preceding a value in the
scratchpad indicates only the DIS value must be updated. The minimum/maximum values for the radial are
0/360 degrees and 0/999 NM for the distance.
REF WPT POS [5L]:
Reference position with dashes as default value. It corresponds to the position of the REF
WPT ID or a manually entered value. Upon entry of a value, the REF ID field will be set to dash symbols, the
RAD/DIS and the BULL ID will be reset to their default values and the POS and BRG/DIS fields will be
automatically updated.
NEAREST[6L]:
Access to the NEAREST 1/1 page.
CANCEL [6L]:
Cancels modification or deletion of the Bulls Eye waypoint. Upon cancellation of a modification,
all the fields return to their previous values.
WPT LIST [6R]:
Access to the USER WPT LIST 1/N page. This prompt is present only if at least one user
waypoint is defined in the user database.
CONFIRM [6R]:
Confirms modification or deletion of the Bulls Eye waypoint. Upon confirmation of the deletion
of the Bulls Eye waypoint, all fields are reset to their default values. Note: Unless confirmation is requested for a
deletion, changes are still allowed while CONFIRM is on the screen.
(SAVE?):
Displayed between the CANCEL/CONFIRM prompts upon modification of the Bulls Eye waypoint.
(DELETE?):
Displayed between the CANCEL/CONFIRM prompts upon deletion of the Bulls Eye waypoint.
