SECTION 9 AUX PAGES Fuel planning figures can be entered and displayed based upon one of three possible configurations: • No fuel sensors connected - In this instance fuel flow is manually entered and is used to calculate fuel on board. When fuel flow or fuel on board is manually entered, the figures are retained the next time the page is displayed (with fuel on board continuously recalculated). • Fuel flow sensor installed, but no fuel on board sensor - Fuel on board is manually entered. Fuel flow is automatically provided by sensor. If fuel flow is manually entered (to override the sensor), it does not affect the FOB figure and is not retained the next time the page is displayed. • Fuel flow and fuel on board sensors installed - Fuel flow and fuel on board are automatically 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 the page is displayed. Flight Planning Page: Trip Planning Performing trip planning operations: 1) Select 'Trip Planning' from the Flight Planning Page, using the steps described in this section. 2) The current trip planning 'leg mode' is displayed at the top of the page: 'POINT TO POINT' or 'FPL LEG' (for a flight plan leg). To change the leg mode, press the MENU Key to display the Flight Planning Page Menu for the other leg mode, then press the ENT Key to accept the other leg mode. 3) For point-to-point trip planning, turn the small and large right knobs to enter the identifier of the 'from' waypoint. Once the waypoint's identifier is entered, press the ENT Key to accept the waypoint. The flashing cursor moves to the 'to' waypoint (Figure 9-14). Again, turn the small and large right knobs to enter the identifier of the 'to' waypoint and press the ENT Key to accept the waypoint. OR, Figure 9-14 Trip Planning Page, Point-to-Point 4) For 'flight plan leg' trip planning, turn the small right knob to select the desired flight plan (already stored in memory), by number. Turn the large right knob to highlight the 'LEG' field (Figure 9-15) and turn the small right knob to select the desired leg of the flight plan, or select 'Cum' to apply trip planning calculations to the entire flight plan.
