SKIP (Start-Up Option)
Press the SKIP key during the start-up procedure to bypass the start-up tests. This is for

Map Function Smart Keys

The moving map function uses several "smart" keys to allow you to declutter the map, find waypoint
information, and setup your map information.

Map Waypoint Keys

APT, VOR, INT, NDB, & USR
The map waypoint "smart" keys are present when the Moving Map pages are displayed. Press the
"smart" key to control the display of the waypoint type. There are three selections possible: waypoint
identifier and location symbol, location symbol only, and off. Pressing the "smart" key subsequent
times will control which selection is made. Map waypoint choices are Airport (APT), VOR, NDB,
Intersection (INT), and User (USR).
A solid, reversed waypoint-type annunciator above the "smart" key means the waypoint identifier and
location symbol will both be displayed.
A bold outline of the waypoint type annunciator will show only a symbol on the waypoint location.
A thin outline around the waypoint type means that it is turned off and no information for that waypoint
type will be displayed on the map.
Waypoint LIST Key
Each press of this key scrolls through the available "smart" keys.

Waypoint SCAN Key

When the SCAN key is active (highlighted) in the moving map display, turning the large knob will
move between the nearest airports. You can then press INFO to view information about that airport.
