position the cursor over the last character of the altimeter setting. Use
the right inner knob to complete entering the correct altimeter setting.
Turn the right outer knob clockwise to position the cursor over the word
APPROVE? if the cursor is not there already. Press
E to approve the
Self Test page. (Note: If the KLN 900 is installed for VFR only operation,
a VFR only warning page is displayed after the self test page has been
approved. This warning page must be acknowledged by pressing
E.)
3. A database page is now displayed showing the date the database
expires or the date it expired. Press E to acknowledge the information
displayed on this page.
4. A page displaying the letters PRESENT POS at the top will now be on
the left side of the screen. In a couple of minutes or less, this page will
display the aircraft’s present position. It shows the position both in lati-
tude/longitude and in terms of the radial and distance from a nearby
VOR. Verify that the position is correct before proceeding.
5. Press the D button. A page with the words DIRECT TO is now
displayed on the left. In step 6 you will enter the identifier of the destina-
tion airport. The identifier will have a “K” prefix for a Continental U.S. air-
port, a “C” prefix for a Canadian airport, or a “P” prefix for an Alaskan air-
port if the identifier is all letters. For example, LAX becomes KLAX. If
the airport identifier contains any numbers, there is no prefix. For
example, TX04 is entered as TX04. For other areas of the world the
airport identifier entered should be identical to how it is charted.
6. Rotate the left inner knob until the first character of the airport identifier is
displayed. Turn the left outer knob one step clockwise to move the
flashing segment to the second character position. Rotate the left inner
knob to select the second character of the identifier. Use this procedure
to enter the complete airport identifier.
7. Press E. The right side will display a page showing the identifier,
name, and position of the airport just entered. Confirm that the correct
airport is displayed. Press
E a second time to approve the airport
data.
8. A Navigation page is now on the right side of the screen. It displays the
distance, ETE, and bearing to the destination airport. In addition, it dis-
plays groundspeed, and a course deviation indicator. If the left inner
knob is rotated one step counterclockwise, you will get an enlarged
Navigation page occupying the entire screen.
