The map page plots your course and route on a mov­

ing map. It also provides you with a cursor that will let

you pan ahead and review nearby waypoints, determine
the distance and bearing to map position and mark new
waypoints. The map page can be broken down into three
sections:

The

zoom, panning control and map configura­

tion fields

are all located at the top of the screen. There

are 12 selectable zoom ranges irom 0.2 to 320 miles or

0.5 to 600 km, measured vertically The pan field pro­

vides access to the map cursor, while the configuration

field allows you to specify what items are displayed and

when they appear.

The

map portion

of the page shows your movement

over ground. Your present position is indicated by a plane
icon (in track up mode), or a position diamond (in other
modes), with your track and/or route displayed as a solid
line. Nearby waypoints are represented as squares, with

the waypoint name also listed. Through the map config­

uration page, you may select which features are displayed

(see page 58 for more information).

The

data fields

located at the four corners of the

map, show the bearing and distance to a destination
waypoint and your current track and speed over ground.
The two fields at the top corners of the map show your
bearing and distance to one of three selectable destina­
tions: an active destination waypoint, a highlighted on­
screen waypoint, or the target crosshair. If you are not

navigating to a waypoint or using the panning function,
the top data fields will not be displayed.
