If you have a ground speed your
Bendix/King unit will calculate the time to
reach the tip of the on screen pointer.
This information is displayed in the PETE
(or Pointer ETE) field. If you wish to
invoke the DIRECT TO function press
the DIRECT TO key.
The unit will then provide you with full

Once the pointer has been activated by pushing the joystick it will remain active for 30

force a reset by pressing RESET STICK
