•  Fuel Flow and Fuel On Board Sensors Installed 
— Fuel flow and fuel on board are automati-
cally provided by sensors. Fuel on board can 
NOT be entered manually. Fuel Flow can be 
entered manually, but does not affect the FOB 
figure and is not retained the next time you 
view the page.
Trip Planning —  allows you to view desired 
track (DTK), distance (DIS), estimated time en 
route (ETE), en route safe altitude (ESA) and 
estimated time of arrival (ETA) information for a 
direct-to, point-to-point between two specified 
waypoints or for any programmed flight plan. This 
item also displays the sunrise/sunset times for your 
destination waypoint (for the selected departure 
date). 
The Trip Planning Page calculates desired 
track, distance, estimated time en route, en 
route safe altitude and estimated time of 
arrival for a specified direct-to, point-to-point 
or flight plan. 
 
NOTE: Point-to-point waypoints, flight plans and/
or ground speeds (default is current GPS-calcu-
lated ground speed) entered on the Fuel Planning 
Page automatically transfer to the Trip Planning 
Page, and vice versa. 
Density Alt / TAS / Winds —  indicates the 
theoretical altitude at which your aircraft per-
forms depending upon several variables, including 
indicated altitude (IND ALT), barometric pressure 
(BARO) and total air temperature (TAT; the tem-
perature, including the heating effect of speed, read 
on a standard outside temperature gauge). This 
item computes true airspeed (TAS), based upon the 
factors above and the calibrated airspeed (CAS). 
Also, this menu option determines winds aloft 
— the wind direction and speed — and a head 
wind/tail wind component, based upon the calcu-
lated density altitude (DEN ALT), true airspeed, 
aircraft heading (HDG) and ground speed. 
Select the “Density Alt / TAS / Winds” option 
to calculate density altitude, true airspeed 
and winds aloft. 
Scheduler —  displays reminder messages (such 
as “Change oil”, “Switch fuel tanks”, “Overhaul”, 
etc.). One-time, periodic, and event-based mes-
sages are allowed. One-time messages appear 
once the timer expires and reappear each time the 
500W-series unit is powered on, until the message 
is deleted. Periodic messages automatically reset to 
the original timer value, once the message is dis-
played. Event-based messages do not use a timer, 
but rather a specific date and time.
