The distance field can be selected to display cumulative (‘cum’) distance or the dis-

tance for each route leg (‘leg’). If cumulative is selected, the first leg’s distance will be
displayed. The second leg will represent the first leg’s distance plus the second leg, and
so on. The time field may be configured to display the estimated time enroute (ete),
estimated time of arrival (eta) or desired track (dtk) for each leg.

To change the distance and time fields:

1. With the cursor active, rotate

O

to highlight the field you want to change.

2. Rotate

K

to select the desired setting and press

C

.

The active route page may also be used to create a new route or edit the route you

are currently navigating (approach, SID or STAR waypoints cannot be edited), and pro-
vides a fast method of selecting any route waypoint as your next destination waypoint
without modifying the active route. If you are editing the active route and want to save
it in its original form, copy it to an open storage route before editing.

To add waypoints to the active route:

1. Press

C

, if necessary, to activate the cursor.

2. Use

or

highlight the waypoint before which

you would like to add the new waypoint.

3. Use

point field, and the remaining route waypoints (if any are present) will move down the list
accordingly.
