AvMap ekp iii c User Manual

The Home mode (also called Screen Amplifier) is used to keep the fix position within the vis-

ible map. The map is scrolled and redrawn automatically as your position moves. When this

mode is active the cursor is hidden. When in Home mode, there will be no position line dis-

played at the bottom of the Data Window.

A slow flashing airplane icon will indicate your current position. The airplane will be pointing

in the direction of movement. Home mode can display the map in North-up, Course-up or

Track-up (see Moving Map Settings, Par. 3.5).

To deactivate Home mode press ‘ESC’ activating the cursor at the previous position or

press a cursor key to enable the cursor under the current fix position.

The Auto Zoom mode is used to keep the fix position and destination (Target) visible on the

map. The map is scrolled and zoomed automatically to keep the best view possible. When this

mode is active the cursor is hidden. When in Auto Zoom mode, there will be no position line

displayed at the bottom of the Data Window.

To activate Auto Zoom mode press ‘ESC’ in Moving Map. Auto Zoom requires a

position fix and an active destination point. If a destination point is not present it works as

Home mode.

To deactivate Auto Zoom mode press ‘ESC’ to enable the cursor at the previous posi-

tion or press a cursor key to enable the cursor under the current fix position. Instead if you

press ‘ZOOM IN’ or ‘ZOOM OUT’ enables the cursor under the current fix position and

zooms on the map.
