TERRAIN Page
The TERRAIN Page is the third page in the NAV Page
Group. To display the TERRAIN Page, select the NAV
Page Group and turn the small right knob until the
TERRAIN Page is displayed (Figure 3-26). The TERRAIN
Page displays terrain information, aircraft ground track,
and GPS-derived MSL altitude. Altitude is shown in
increments of 20 feet or in increments of 10 meters,
depending on unit configuration. The 'G' to right of the
MSL altitude display reminds the pilot that altitude is
GPS-derived.
NOTE: The TERRAIN Page does not appear on
GNS 430 units that are not properly equipped
with or configured for TERRAIN. See Section 11
for a full description of TERRAIN functions.
