Step 3: Select Find By.
There are two options of “Find By”: Alphabetical and Nearest To.
Selecting Alphabetical will display all the waypoints in the category
you select in alphabetic order. Nearest To will display a list of the 20
waypoints nearest to your position or waypoint you select in order of
their distance away. This could be used to display the waypoints that
are closest to your present position or display the airports that are
closest to any city you select. For the purpose of this basic opera-
tion, only Alphabetical will be used. For details on Nearest To, see
the Reference chapter in the User Manual.
Use the Left/Right arrow until “Alphabetical” is displayed in the
Find By field.
Step 4: Select GOTO Destination Waypoint from the User Category.
With “User” highlighted and “Alphabetical” in
the Find By field, press
[ENTER] . A list of all
the waypoints you have entered is displayed.
Use the Up/Down arrows to highlight the
desired destination, in this case “Home”, and
press
[ENTER] .
You are returned to the last NAV screen viewed
with some noticeable changes. If you are
viewing the Map screen, you will now notice a
thick line which is a graphical plot of the
GOTO you just created. Other NAV screens, have changed the
header bar to indicate that you are navigating to a destination. Press
the NAV key until you are viewing the Compass screen. The header
bar now displays “To: Home”. Now all of the navigational informa-
tion displayed is to provide you with the necessary details to get you
to your destination, in this case “Home”.
Alternate Step 4: Select GOTO Destination Waypoint from Other
Categories.
As mentioned earlier, a GOTO can be to any waypoint in memory,
either ones you have created or ones that have been loaded into the
Meridian. When selecting waypoints other then “User”, you are first
presented with the keyboard display. The reason for this is there can
be thousands of waypoints in the list and using the conventional
“scrolling” could take quite a bit of time. By using the keyboard,
you will be able to shorten the time by going to a specific point in
the list.
