Displays, Lights, and Controls (continued)
The
Small
, inner knob has two functions. First, it is used to
scroll through displays that pertain to the top-level displays;
that is, when the diamond
u
appears in the lower right
corner of a display. Second, when editing the display, a
character (or series of characters), will flash. The
Small
,
inner knob is then used to change the flashing character(s)
to the desired character(s).
Action Buttons
(Select) The
SEL
button is used to activate editing. Editing
is active whenever part of the display is flashing. With some
features, editing is automatically activated without pressing
SEL
.
(Information) The
INFO
button accesses supplementary
information about the displayed waypoint. It is also used to
access flight plan comments that you enter. Pressing this
button makes the current mode light flash, indicating you
are looking at waypoint or flight plan information. Pressing
this button again exits the
INFO
function.
(Enter) The
ENT
button enters and saves the information
flashing on the display. If
ENT
is not pressed, any changes
made are not saved.
(Direct-To) The
DIRECT-TO
button is used to define a
direct course from the present position to any waypoint. The
Waypoint Retriever, used to find waypoints in the database,
is automatically activated after pressing this button.
Pressing the DIRECT-TO button twice is used to enter a
desired course to or from the active waypoint. This action
automatically suspends waypoint sequencing.
