REFERENCE Zooming Panning & Configuring A crosshair will appear when you activate the pan function. The distance and direction of the crosshair from your current position will be shown in the upper corners of the Map Page. On-Screen Pointing The crosshair will "snap" to displayed waypoints, which allows you to quickly review or go to the selected waypoint right from the Map Page. 22 Zooming, Panning, and Configuring There are three main functions you can perform from the Map Page- zooming, panning, and configuring (changing the map and track setup). Each of these functions has its own "field", which may be selected and activated for use. Whenever the Map Page first appears, the zoom field (at the top left) is always highlighted. The map has 12 map scales which are selected through the zoom function field. To select a zoom scale: 1. Use the arrow keypad to highlight the zoom field. 2. Press the E key to begin range selection. 3. Select a range scale and press E. The second function field on the Map Page is the pan field, located at the top middle of the screen. The pan function allows you to move the map with the four arrow keys to view areas outside the current map. To activate the pan function: 1. Highlight the pan field. 2. Press the E key to activate the pan function. 3. Use the arrow keys to move the map in any direction. As you begin to move the map, a crosshair (plus sign) will appear. This crosshair will now serve as a target marker for the moving map. The distance and bearing to your destination will now be replaced by the distance and bearing from your present position to the target crosshair. When you pan around the map, you'll notice the target crosshair will "snap" to on-screen waypoints or navaids and highlight the waypoint name or navaid. Once a waypoint name is highlighted, you can either review its waypoint definition page or waypoint display options, or execute a GOTO function right from the Map Page. To exit the pan function: 1. Press the Q key. To review the waypoint definition page for a highlighted waypoint: 1. Press E while the waypoint is highlighted.
