HAZARD AVOIDANCE
CELL AND STRIKE MODE ON THE NAVIGATION MAP
On the Navigation Map, cell mode identifies cells of lightning activity (Figure 6-120). Stormscope identifies
clusters of electrical activity that indicate cells. Strike mode indicates the approximate location of lightning
strikes.
Selecting the 'cell' or 'strike' mode on the Navigation Map:
1) Press the MENU Key.
2) With 'Map Setup' selected, press the ENT Key.
3) Select the 'Weather' group.
4) Press the ENT Key. The cursor flashes on 'STRMSCP LTNG'.
5) Turn the large FMS Knob to select 'STRMSCP MODE'.
6) Turn the small FMS Knob to change between 'CELL' and 'STRIKE' options. When an item is selected, press the
ENT Key.
7) Press the FMS knob to return to the Navigation Map Page.
If heading input is lost, strikes and/or cells must be cleared manually after the execution of each turn. This
is to ensure that the strike and/or cell positions are depicted accurately in relation to the nose of the aircraft.
