In the example at the bottom of the previous page, we're travelling with a
track of 200°. In the north-up view, the present position indicator appears
to move towards the lower left corner of the screen. In the track-up view,
the present position moves straight towards the top of the display. A "N"
shows to help you see which direction is north when the track-up mode is
on. Remember, the track-up mode, the screen rotates as you change
direction. It always keeps your direction of travel (track) heading towards
the top of the screen.
NORTH-UP
COURSE-UP
In the course-up mode, the screen is locked into your original bearing to
the recalled waypoint, (user waypoint, airport, NDB, VOR, or cursor loca-
tion) regardless of your track.
(Note: the track-up and course-up modes do not work when the unit is
zoomed-in on a C-Map cartridge.)
To select the desired mode, press the up or down arrow keys to move the
black box to the "UP ORIENTATION", then press the right arrow key to
select it. Press the EXIT key to return to the mapping screen.
EARTH MAP OPTIONS
The earth map consists of the built-in back-
ground map of the world, plus any cartridge
that is attached to the AirMap 300. To change
the Earth map options, first press the MENU
key, then press the up or down arrow keys until
the Earth Map label appears. Highlight the la-
bel, then press the right arrow key to select it.
The screen shown at right appears.
