Waypoint & Database
The EKP-IV uses three types of Waypoints:
Jeppesen Waypoints are contained in the Compact Flash and include Airport,
VOR, NDB and Intersection Waypoints. Each of these Waypoints is displayed
on the Moving Map by an icon.
These Waypoints can be searched in the Database Menu and identified on the
Moving Map with Quick Info or Full Info.
Each of these Waypoints can be used in a Flight Plan, for the Nearest Search or
GoTo functions. When used in a Flight Plan, details regarding the Waypoint
are displayed in the Destination box during flight (when DEST is chosen for
display in the Data Window, see Par. 3.5.2).
Our Jeppesen library is updated every 28 days. Please contact your local C-MAP
office for update orders and pricing.
User-Defined Waypoints (also called User Waypoints) are created by the user.
The user can create unique 8 character names and choose from 16 icons for
each waypoint.
Waypoints can be created and edited both on the Moving Map and in the User
Waypoint Database page. Like the Jeppesen Waypoints, they can be used in a
Flight Plan, for the Nearest Search or GoTo functions.
The EKP-IV can store up to 1,000 User-Defined Waypoints within the internal
memory.
The internal waypoint memory capacity is shared with Flight Plan waypoints;
i.e. if you have 10 flight plans with 10 waypoints stored in the unit memory,
there is room for 900 User Waypoints.
Temporary Waypoints are created only on the Moving Map and are associ-
ated with a particular Flight Plan. They are named in the format WPT001,
WPT002 etc. Temporary Waypoints can be used at the beginning, middle or
end of Flight Plans. They can be used as the destination of a Direct-To Flight
Plan, but cannot be accessed in the Nearest function.
