If the
Line
checkbox is checked the sector will become a line type of observation zone. The
Radius 1
parameter describes half of width of line length. Use the PAGE selector knob to
increase the radius by 0.1 of the selected distance units and the ZOOM selector knob to
increase the radius by 5.
If
Line
is not checked the
Angle1
parameter will define the basic shape of the observation
zone. A value of 180° means that the zone is a cylinder and 45° is the classical FAI sector.
Rotate the PAGE selector knob to increase the angle by 0.5° or use the ZOOM selector knob
to choose values 22.5°, 45°, 90° or 180°.
Angle2
and
Radius2
are used for more complex observation zone setups.
When changing observation zone parameters the screen is automatically updated to display
the new zone.
Check the
AAT
checkbox, if you want to make the selected zone an assigned area. The
AAT
checkbox will be automatically checked when
Radius1
is greater than 10 km.
By default navigation to task points will be automatically advanced; uncheck
Auto next
if
you do not want to change over to next point when reaching selected point. This option will
be automatically unchecked when
Radius1
is greater than 10 km.
Use
Template
if you wish to modify start, point and finish zones at same time.
Available templates are:
500 m cylinders are used for start, points and finish.
500m and start line. The 500 m cylinder is used for turn points. A 1 km long line is
used for start and finish.
FAI and start line. 90° and 3 km long sector is used for turn points. A 1 km long line is
used for start and finish.
