>‘MENU’ 1 sec. + “FLIGHT PLAN” + ‘ENTER’ + ‘MENU’ + “VIEWED FP” + ‘ENTER’

” + ‘ENTER’ + ‘ESC’

Activation can be obtained in two ways:

1. The Flight Plan page displays each leg with the first Waypoint highlighted. To acti-

vate a leg of the Flight Plan, use the cursor key to select the leg and press ‘GOTO’. This will

activate navigation to that Waypoint. This method is useful when continuing a Flight Plan after

a stop. The letter “A” (Activated) will be shown near the chosen Waypoint.

2. The Flight Plan Menu allows you to Activate/Deactivate the Flight Plan by the fol-

lowing procedure:

>‘MENU’ 1 sec. + “FLIGHT PLAN” + ‘ENTER’ + Select Waypoint + ‘MENU’ + “ACTI-
VATE/DEACTIVATE FP” + ‘ENTER’ + ‘ESC’

NOTE

The first line of the Flight Plan menu will read “Activate”or “Deactivate” dependent upon the current

status of the Flight Plan mode.

It is necessary to deactivate a Flight Plan before activating another. Other Flight Plans

can be created or edited while another Flight Plan is “Active”.

In addtioni, the Flight Plan can be activated/deactivated from the GOTO Menu box.

‘GOTO; + “ACTIVATE FP” OR “DEACTIVATE FP” + ‘ENTER’

This will activate/deactivate the currently Viewed Flight Plan. (See Sec.3.5.1.)
