• Flight plans that have a combination of long and short legs cause the range to increase and decrease as
waypoints sequence. To avoid this, auto zoom can be disabled or the maximum/minimum times can be
adjusted.
• The 'time out' time (configurable on the Map Setup Page for the Map Group) determines how long auto
zoom is overridden by a manual adjustment of the range knob. At this expiration of this time, the auto
zoom range is restored. Setting the 'time out' value to zero causes the manual override to never time out.
• When the maximum 'look forward' time is set to zero, the upper limit becomes the maximum range available
(2000 nm).
• When the minimum 'look forward' time is set to zero, the lower limit becomes 1.5 nm.
