Operations
If the oceanic/remote function is armed outside of
terminal airspace and above the Oceanic Activation
Altitude, the NMC will immediately transition to the
active state.
Activate: Refers to the NMC action that changes the state from armed to
active and changes the flight phase to the oceanic/remote flight phase.
Cancel(ing): The manual entry sequence you use to instruct the NMC
to do the following depending on which state it is in:
1. If the NMC is in the armed state, canceling changes the state to
disarmed. In other words, you instruct the NMC never change to the
oceanic/remote flight phase. The NMC will continue with the current
flight phase (terminal or enroute).
2. If the NMC is in the active state, canceling changes the state to
disarmed. This causes the NMC to stop flying the oceanic/remote
flight phase and change to the enroute flight phase (the NMC
automatically changes to the terminal flight phase when entering
terminal airspace).
Deactivate: The NMC's action that changes the state from active to
armed and stops flying in the oceanic/remote flight phase.
The NMC changes states from active to armed
automatically if the aircraft enters terminal airspace.
In this case, the NMC will change to the terminal
flight phase.
The NMC changes states from active to armed if you
press ENT when the message indicating you have
descended below the activation altitude is displayed.
The NMC will contiue to provide navigation in the
Oceanic flight phase if you press any other button.
For example, you are flying above the Oceanic
Activation Altitude and outside your destination's
terminal airspace. You then begin your descent and
your altitude drops below the Oceanic Activation
Altitude before entering terminal airspace. In this
case the NMC will display a message indicating that
you have decended below the Oceanic Activation
Altitude. You then press the ENT key. The NMC
changes to the enroute flight phase. Because you
