Crossfill - Garmin GTN 625 Pilot's Manual

Crossfill

Dual units may be interfaced to crossfill information between the two units.
This option will not be available unless dual units are configured.
When Crossfill is turned on with one GTN, it is automatically turned on in the
other GTN. Some items are always crossfilled regardless of the crossfill setting;
others are dependent on the crossfill setting.
The GTN can be can also be interfaced with the GNS 400W/500W units. The
GTN can automatically send the Active Flight Plan and active Direct-To course to
the GNS unit. The GTN User Waypoints can be manually sent to the GNS unit. The
GNS unit can manually send its User Waypoints to the GTN unit. Waypoint names
longer than six characters, or duplicates, sent from the GTN unit to the GNS unit
will replace some characters with a "+" sign, while leaving significant characters to
aid in identification (such as, USR003 becomes US+003).
NOTE: Upon crossfill being activated, the GTNs may take up to 10 seconds
to crossfill the flight plans. The pilot must verify the flight plan in each unit
prior to use. The GTN and GNS units must have databases with the same cycle.
NOTE:
When GPS navigation is lost in either unit, crossfilling may not be
available until GPS is restored in both units. Crossfilling will resume once the
flightplan is changed on one of the units or crossfill is re-enabled.
