Displayed on Map
The User Waypoint Page (Figure 5-43 ) displays a list of up to the 25 nearest user waypoints that are within 200
nm of the aircraft' s present position. Each list item includes the identifier, icon, bearing and distance to the user
waypoint from the current position. An arrow before the identifier indicates the selected user waypoint. Up to
eleven user waypoints are visible at a time. If more than eleven are available, there is ascroll bar that is availble.
If less than eleven, the unused area matches the background color and the scroll bar is not be visible. If there are
no user waypoints in the list, text indicating that there are no nearest user waypoints is displayed.
Information about the selected user waypoint includes the user comment and location (latitude and longitude).
If there are no user waypoints, the user comment is blank and the position data is dashed. Reference Waypoints
for the selected user waypoint are those specified when the user waypoint was created. If there is only one valid
reference waypoint, the bearing and distance from the reference waypoint is stated and the second reference
waypoint information is dashed. If there are no user waypoints or no valid reference waypoints, the reference
waypoint fields are dashed. If there are two valid reference waypoints, the bearings from the reference waypoints
are stated and the first reference waypoint' s distance field is dashed.
A map of the currently selected user waypoint and surrounding data is displayed which at a minimum shows
the selected user waypoint and the current aircraft position. A line is drawn between the current position and the
selected user waypoint.
