Heading
Navigation angles (track, heading, course, bearing) are set on the AUX – SYSTEM SETUP Page and are either
corrected to the computed magnetic variation (MAG VAR) or referenced to true north (denoted 'T'). When an
approach referenced to true north has been loaded into the flight plan, the system generates a message to change
the NAV ANGLE setting to TRUE at the appropriate time.
Changing the navigation angle setting:
1) Use the FMS Knob to select the AUX – SYSTEM SETUP Page on the MFD.
2) Push the FMS Knob to activate the cursor.
3) Turn the large FMS Knob to highlight the NAV ANGLE Field in the DISPLAY UNITS Box.
4) Turn the small FMS Knob to highlight the desired setting and press the ENT Key.
• TRUE – References angles to true north (denoted with 'T')
• MAGNETIC – Angles corrected to the computed magnetic variation (MAG VAR)
