also enables the display of the off-map indicator on
approach charts.

ownship on an approach chart is 50 meters.

• To display ownship position on airport diagrams, ensure

Display Ownship on Airport Diagram is set to ON.

NOTE The minimum GPS accuracy requirement to display
ownship on a taxi diagram is 17 meters.

• The Default Chart Zoom Level is the zoom level

preference for viewing terminal charts. Values are Fit Full
Chart and Fit to Width. Fit Full Chart is the default
value.

• Arpt Diagram (10-9) Speed Threshold is the speed at

which, if enabled, the automatic switch to a taxi diagram
occurs. It is also the speed threshold at which the ownship
appears on the airport diagram. To optimize this setting for
your aircraft, adjust the threshold speed. Values range from
30 to 80 knots.The setting is 40 knots by default.

Note that a GPS signal is required for the automatic switch
to a taxi diagram.

NOTE Displaying the ownship position symbol on the airport
diagram is designed to assist flight crews in orienting
themselves on the airport surface and improving pilot positional
awareness during taxi operations. This function is not to be
used as the basis for ground maneuvering and is limited to
ground operations.
