Parallel
Track Offset
This function allows you to create a parallel course
offset to the left or right from your current
FROM-TO course from 0.1 to 20.0 nm. You must
have FROM and TO waypoints defined. Parallel
Track cannot be activated if you set a course using
Direct-To. Transitions between flight plan legs
cannot be greater than 120 degrees. Parallel tracks
that would force backtracking are not allowed. You
select Parallel Track to be “In Use” or on “Standby,”
choose Left or Right of the current course, and the
offset distance. The PTK annunciator (if installed)
will turn on when Parallel Track is enabled.
