VORs The VORs option allows you to choose the type of VOR information displayed on the Map screen. You may select the display of VOR icon and identifier, icon only, or no information by each subsequent press of the VOR Menu Item key. Detailed Operation Custom Map VOR information detail The GMX 200 supports full integration with the GNS 480, CNX80, and SL30 Nav/Com. This feature allows tuned VORs along with ILS and localizer approaches to be shown on the GMX 200 moving map. This high level of integration is designed to provide additional, simple to interpret situational awareness during high work-load phases of flight. The graphic display of Nav/Comm information on the GMX 200 provides another source to help make sure you are using the intended navigational aid and your To/From orientation to the reference station is as desired. Custom Map information when connected to SL30 The SL30 must be receiving a valid signal from the VOR. The VOR information detail for the selected VOR will show the distance and radial-from bearing between your present position and the VOR. The radial and distance information comes from your GPS, not the SL30. The GMX 200 must have VOR symbols turned on for this feature to be active in the Custom Map function. VOR information is always shown in the IFR and VFR Chart functions. You can turn the display of VOR and ILS information in the Custom Map page on or off. VOR and ILS information is always shown in the IFR and VFR Chart functions. VOR symbols on an airway are always displayed when Low Airways or High Airways is selected. VOR Highlight The GMX 200 highlights the VOR in magenta on the moving map when the SL30 is either tuned to or monitoring a nearby VOR station. The highlighted VOR station is determined by using the tuned or monitored VOR frequency of the SL30 with the GMX 200 internal database. VOR OBS The OBS (Omni-Bearing Selector) value selected in the SL30 will be shown as a line from the tuned VOR station in magenta on the GMX 200 display. The selected value will be shown on the line. This feature provides a quick view of your position relative to both the VOR and the tuned radial to help improve situational awareness. The OBS line will only be drawn from the active VOR, not the monitored VOR. The SL30 must be receiving a valid signal from the VOR and the GMX 200 must have VOR symbols turned on for this feature to be active. 190-00607-02 Rev C 21
