WP WP
If this list contains more than 8 visible WPs, a down
arrow at the right lower edge of the list shows that
additional pages follow. To scroll down to the next
page, press the
arrow; WP 9 to 16 are now
shown, and so on. You can select an individual WP
with the
or keys, and edit it by pressing the
Enter key.
The first letter of the WP name will blink; again with
the
and arrow keys you can select the
desired letter. There are numbers and letters, as
well as a set of special symbols to choose from. By
pressing the
arrow you move forward to the
next letter. With the F1 key you can switch between
capital and small letters and numbers. You can enter up to a maximum of 17 characters.
Once the name has been entered correctly, confirm by pressing Enter. Now the waypoint
altitude blinks, asking for any alterations. Again you confirm by pressing Enter. The WP
position comes next. First the latitude is entered in degrees and minutes, and is confirmed
by pressing Enter. Next are the decimals of the minutes. (Depending on the Coordinate-
Format set in the Basic Settings) The same occurs with the longitude. Holding the key down
longer changes the values to be set faster.
Deletion of Waypoints:
Selecting the waypoint to be deleted is done with the
and arrow keys. Pressing the F2
key (Del WP) activates the delete function. To be on the safe side, the Flytec 5030 GPS
asks once again, “Delete Waypoint?” Yes or No are the choices available. It is possible,
however, to stop the deletion process by pressing Esc and returning to a previous level.
Insertion of Waypoints
Pressing the F1 key (Ins WP) activates this function. Entering WP names, altitude, and
position happens in the same way as described above. After confirming all entries with the
Enter key, the new WP is inserted alphabetically in the list.
Altogether 200 WPs can be stored by the Flytec 5030 GPS.
Note: After entering the new waypoints (for example, for inputting them into a route) these
can be used only after you have switched back to the normal flight mode by briefly pressing
the /Menu key. In addition, the route into which the new waypoint should be inserted must
not be active. Therefore, first change into route selection by prolonged pressing of the
/Route key and with the help of the F2 key (Cancel Route) deactivate the route.
