This is the information for the airspace that the cursor is resting on. If
there are more pages of information about the airspace, press the left or
right arrow keys to view them. To erase this screen, simply press the EXIT
key. To see information about another airspace, simply move the cursor to
that airspace and repeat these steps.

MAP SETUP

The map has many customization options. To change
them, first press the MENU key while a map is showing
on the screen. The "MAP SETUP" screen is highlighted.
Press the right arrow key. A screen similar to the one
at right appears.
Change Maps
Changes made to the map using the options in the
Map Setup is normally limited to only to the current
map screen. The change can be all map screens, however, by switching
the "THIS MAP" to "ALL MAPS" in the "CHANGE" menu. To do this, simply
highlight the "CHANGE" label, then press the right arrow key. To switch
back, repeat the above.

MAP OPTIONS

The following map options are listed under the "Map
Options" menu: Map Orientation, Auto Zoom, View
Destination, Range Rings, and Grids.

Map Orientation

By default, this receiver shows the map with north al-
ways at the top of the screen. This is the way most
maps and charts are printed on paper. This is fine if
you're always travelling due north. What you see to your
left corresponds to the left side of the map, to your
right is shown on the right side of the map, and so on. However, if you
travel any other direction, the map doesn't line up with your view of the
world.
To correct this problem, a track-up mode rotates the map as you turn.
Thus, what you see on the left side of the screen should always be to your
left, and so on. A course-up mode keeps the map at the same orientation
as the initial bearing to the waypoint.
