The waypoint sequencing field, located at the
bottom left of the direct-to confirmation page, dis-
plays the current status of the external GPS SEQ
switch.
To manually set your course from the course select
field, set the GPS SEQ switch to the 'AUTO' posi-
tion and enter the selected course in the course
select field. NOTE: Whenever the GPS SEQ switch
is set to the 'HOLD' position, the selected course
will be determined by the external OBS/HSI.
When using the course select feature on the direct-
to confirmation page or when the GPS SEQ switch
is set to the 'HOLD' position and external course
input is not present, you may also enter the
desired course from the NAV summary page using
the course field at the bottom of the page.
