Selecting a Waypoint
Section 3
Direct-To Navigation
The direct-to function provides a quick method of
setting a course to a waypoint. Once a direct-to is acti-
vated, the unit will establish a point-to-point course
line (geodesic path) from your present position to
the selected direct-to waypoint. The unit will provide
navigation guidance to the selected direct-to waypoint
until the direct-to is manually cancelled or replaced by
a new active leg or direct-to.
To select a direct-to waypoint:
1. Press the
direct-to
key. The select direct-to
waypoint page will appear, with the waypoint
identifier field highlighted.
2. Use the
small
and
large
right knobs
to
enter the identifier of the desired direct-to
waypoint.
3. Press
ENT
to confirm the selected waypoint,
and
ENT
again to activate the direct-to func-
tion.
If you’re navigating to a waypoint and get off
course, the direct-to function may also be used to re-
center the CDI (HSI) needle and proceed direct-to the
active waypoint.
To re-center the CDI (HSI) needle to the active
waypoint:
1. Press the
direct-to
key, followed by pressing
ENT
twice.
NOTE:
If you’re navigating an approach with
the missed approach point (MAP) as the active
waypoint, re-centering the CDI (HSI) needle with
the
direct-to
key will cancel the approach.
