Flight Planning

The ﬂashing cursor moves to the aircraft head-

ing (HDG) ﬁeld. Use the

small

and

large

right

knobs to enter the aircraft heading from the

directional gyro or compass. Press

ENT

when

ﬁnished.

With all variables entered, the following infor-

mation will be provided:

• DEN ALT— Density altitude

• TAS— True airspeed

• WIND— Wind direction and speed

• HEAD/TAIL WIND— Magnitude of head wind

or tail wind component

NOTE:

If your installation includes components

(such as an airdata sensor) to provide any of the

variables above, the density alt/tas/winds page

data will default to the values provided by these

components.

Crossﬁll Operation

The Crossﬁll Function allows the pilot to transfer a

direct-to destination, the active ﬂight plan includ-

ing VNAV parameters, any stored ﬂight plan, a

user waypoint, or all user waypoints between two

400W-Series (or 500W-Series) Garmin units in a

dual-unit installation. There is only one Crossﬁll

function page. It may be accessed pressing the

key and selecting Crossﬁll while viewing

the default Nav page, Flight Plan Catalog, Active

Flight Plan, User Waypoint page, or the Aux mode

Flight Planning page and then pressing

ENT

NOTE:

The databases of the 400/500 series and

the 400W/500W are incompatible, so you may

not mix systems.

To select Crossﬁll

Select “Crossﬁll?” from the Default NAV Page,

Flight Plan Catalog page, Active Flight Plan page,

or the User Waypoint page by pressing

scrolling down to “Crossﬁll” with the

large right

knob and then pressing

ENT

. On the Aux Flight

Planning page scroll down to “Crossﬁll” with the

large right

knob, and then press

ENT

•

Automatic Operation:

If both units are set

to automatic, a change in the active ﬂight plan

or VNAV parameters of one unit will also be

seen in the other. Initiating a direct-to to a

waypoint on one unit will also initiate a direct-

to to the same waypoint on the other unit.

If one unit is set for automatic crossﬁll and the

other is set for manual crossﬁll, then only the

auto unit will automatically send data to the

manual unit. In this conﬁguration, the auto

unit could be thought of as the master unit.

•

Manual Operation:

If manual operation is

desired, the pilot must invoke all transfers

from that unit. When a unit is conﬁgured

for automatic transfer, a manual transfer can

also be done on command. If either of the

messages “data transfer error” or “data transfer

cancelled” are received during an automatic or

manual transfer, the pilot must force another

transfer.
