Introducing the function keys
Five keys located on the lower left part of the 961 instantly
select the most common functions. Each successive press of a
function key selects additional display screens belonging to
that function. There are several screens under each function
key (except for the
TRIP
key). For each function, the 961
remembers the last-viewed screen, returning there when you
later select the function. The one exception is the
STAR
func-
tion key, which always brings you directly to the
ALARMS
screen.

The function keys are briefly described below.

about the chart-in-use, all the data you need to navigate,

points, avoidance points, and routes at these screens, and
view existing waypoints, avoidance points, and routes.
