Active Route Page
Whenever you have activated a route while in Aviation or Marine Mode, the Active Route Page shows
each point (waypoint or map item) of the active route, with the point name, Course, Distance, and sev-
eral other fi elds of information. The current destination point, the 'active' point, is marked with an arrow
icon. As you navigate a route, the list automatically updates to indicate the next 'active' point fi rst. The
Active Route and Route Review Pages share many of the same features and options.

Active Route Page Options Menu

The following route options are available by pressing MENU on the Active Route Page:
Deactivate – stops route navigation.
Edit on Map – allows you to edit the route on the map.
Insert/Add Waypoint – inserts a waypoint (or point from the Find Menu) before the highlighted
waypoint or add a point(s) onto the end of the route.
Remove Waypoint – deletes the selected waypoint from the route.
Invert – reverses the order of the route.
Select Approach – (Aviation Only) allows you to select the fi nal course segment of a published ap-
proach, replacing the fi nal destination airport (in a Go To or route) with the sequence of waypoints for
the selected approach. The approaches provide only the fi nal course segment, usually from fi nal approach
fi x (FAF) to missed approach point (MAP), and are based on existing GPS, RNAV, VOR, NDB, localizer,
or ILS approach procedures. All approach procedures are fl own as a sequence of waypoints in the route.
In order to select an approach and add the waypoints to the route, the fi nal destination in the 'Go To' or
route must be an airport with a published approach.
Set Fuel Flow ( Plan Route) – allows you to enter information about your route. Aviation Mode: 'Set
Fuel Flow.' Marine and Automotive Modes: 'Plan Route.'
Change Data Fields – allows you to customize the data fi elds displayed on the Active Route Page.
