Panning the Map Page

Panning  moves  the  map  beyond  its  current  limits 

without  adjusting  the  map  scale.    In  panning  mode  a 
target pointer flashes on the map display, and a window 
appears at the top of the map display showing the latitude/
longitude position of the pointer.  The window also shows 
bearing  and  distance  to  the  pointer  from  the  aircraft’s  
present position.

Panning with the cursor on the Map Page allows the 

pilot to zoom in and isolate individual cells.  Strike data is 
not typically updated on the Map Page while the panning 
cursor  is  on,  therefore,  when  the  panned  map  is  first 
displayed, the data is only a “snapshot” of conditions.

Selecting the panning function and panning 
the map display:

1)  Press  the  small 

right

  knob  to  activate  the 

panning target pointer (Figure 2-6).

2)  Turn the small 

right

 knob clockwise to move 

up, or counterclockwise to move down.

3)  Turn the large 

right

 knob clockwise to move 

right, or counterclockwise to move left.

4)  To cancel the panning function and return to 

the  present  position,  press  the  small 

right

 

knob.

WEATHER PAGE

Weather Page—400 Series

In addition to the Map Page, storm data can also be 

viewed  on  the  Weather  Page.    In  the  400  Series,  when 
the STORMSCOPE is connected to the unit, the Weather 
Page appears after the Traffic Page in the sequence of NAV 
Pages, resulting in a total of nine pages (Figure 2-7).
