Default Nav Page - Garmin 500W Series Pilot's Manual & Reference

Default NAV Page

During most flights, the Default NAV, Map and
NAVCOM pages are the primary pages used for navi-
gation. The Default NAV Page displays a "look ahead"
map, graphic course deviation indicator (CDI), the
active leg of your flight plan (as defined by the current
"from" and "to" waypoints), and four user-selectable
data fields. The default settings for these fields are dis-
tance to waypoint (DIS), desired track (DTK), ground
speed (GS) and estimated time en route (ETE). See
Section 12 for definitions of these navigation terms.
The default NAV page is selected by pressing and hold-
ing the CLR key or turning the small right knob.
From the Default NAV Page, simply turn the
small right knob to display the available pages. The
NAVCOM Page displays the available frequencies
(communication and navigation) for the departure
airport, any en route airports that are included in your
flight plan, and the final destination airport. When
using the direct-to function, frequencies are listed for
the airport nearest to your starting position and the
destination airport.
