SYSTEM OVERVIEW
SYSTEM UTILITIES
For flight planning purposes, timers, trip statistics, and a scheduler feature are provided on the ‘Aux - Utility’
Page. The timers available include a stopwatch-like generic timer, a total time in flight timer, and a record of the
time of departure. Trip statistics—odometer, trip odometer, and average trip and maximum groundspeeds—are
displayed from the time of the last reset.

The generic timer can be set to count up or down from a specified time (HH:MM:SS). When the countdown

a countdown, the digits are reset to the initial value. If the timer is counting up when reset, the digits return
to zero.

2)

FMS
Knob momentarily to activate the flashing cursor.
3)
