Default NAV Page

Default NAV Page
The first NAV page is the Default NAV Page. This
page may be quickly selected from ANY page by using
the CLR key.

or Direct-to Destination
To select the NAV group and display the Default
NAV Page, press and hold CLR.
The default NAV Page provides a "look ahead"
map display with your present position at the bottom
center of the page. The top of the page displays
desired track (DTK), ground track (TRK) and distance
to destination waypoint (DIS). The bottom of the page
indicates ground speed (GS), active to/from waypoints
(only active to, for a direct-to destination) and esti-
mated time en route. A graphic course deviation
indicator (CDI) also appears at the bottom of the page.
Unlike the angular limits on a CDI coupled to a VOR
or ILS receiver, full scale limits for this CDI are defined
by a GPS-derived distance (2.0, 1.0 or 0.3 NM). By
default, the CDI scale automatically adjusts to the
desired limits based upon the current phase of flight:
en route, terminal area or approach.

Indicator (CDI)
mechanical CDI, when you're off course simply steer
toward the needle. The TO/FROM arrow in the center

of the scale indicates whether you are heading to the
waypoint (an up arrow) or if you have passed the
waypoint (a down arrow).
NOTE: Approaching the FAF, the GNS 500W-series
unit automatically rescales in an angular fashion. This
allows the LPV approach to be flown identically to a
standard ILS. At 2.0 NM from the FAF, CDI scaling is
tightened from 1.0 to the angular full scale deflection
defined for the approach.
You may also manually select the desired scale set-
