Map Page Options

Many of the 400W-series functions are menu 

driven. Each of the main pages has an options menu, 
allowing you to custom tailor the corresponding page 
to your preferences and/or select special features 
which specifically relate to that page. A map page 
options menu provides additional settings to customize 
the map page and additional features related specifi-
cally to the map page. 

The following options are available: “Setup Map?”, 

“Measure Dist?”, “Data Fields Off?”, “Change Fields?” 
and “Restore Defaults?”.

“Setup Map?” allows you to configure the map display 

to your preferences, including map orientation, land data 
enable/disable, Jeppesen data enable/disable, automatic 
zoom, airspace boundaries, and text size. The following
