Comments
Upon power-up, the G1000 system detects that a stored flight plan waypoint is
locked. This occurs when an aviation database update eliminates an obsolete way-
point. The flight plan cannot find the specified waypoint and flags this message. This
can also occur with user waypoints in a flight plan that is deleted.
Remove the waypoint from the flight plan if it no longer exists in any database,
OR
update the waypoint name/identifier to reflect the new information.
The system has detected that a waypoint coordinate has changed due to a new
aviation database update. Verify that stored flight plans contain correct waypoint
locations.
The system notifies the pilot that the timer has expired.
This occurs when a stored flight plan contains procedures that have been manually
edited. This alert is issued only after an aviation database update. Verify that the
user-modified procedures in stored flight plans are correct and up to date.
This occurs when a newly installed aviation database eliminates an obsolete ap-
proach or arrival used by a stored flight plan. The obsolete procedure is removed
from the flight plan. Update flight plan with current arrival or approach.
Aircraft is approaching VNAV profile. Prepare to climb or descend to meet VNAV
profile.
Aircraft is approaching target altitude. Prepare to level aircraft.
This occurs when the pilot attempts to activate a stored flight plan that contains
locked waypoint. Remove locked waypoint from flight plan. Update flight plan with
current waypoint.
