Changing Filter Area - Honeywell KMD 250 Pilot's Manual

Normal Operation
KJHW is also a reporting station which is listed first in the AVAILABLE
METARS field. Use the joystick to scroll through the AVAILABLE
METARS. Urgent, special or amended reports will be highlighted in
yellow.
Note that the displayed report in Figure 2-54 is 12 minutes old. The bar
indicates a percentage of time left before expiration. The bar will be
green the first 50%, then turn yellow.

CHANGING FILTER AREA

1. Press the CHANGE AREA Softkey to view either Nearest to present
position, a User Defined location, the Destination (last waypoint in a
flightplan) or FPLN WPT (any waypoint in an active flightplan). The
softkey cycles through the FILTER AREAs as shown in Figure 2-60.

Destination
These four selectable areas are used to make it easier to find all the
reports near a specific location without having to know the exact identifier
of the reporting station.
Scanning Flightplan
Waypoints
If FPLN WPT is selected in the
FILTER AREA field (as shown
in Figure 2-61), the Rotary
Knob can be used to sequence
through all the waypoints on
the active flightplan. The next
waypoint from the current posi-
tion will be displayed.
Turn the Rotary Knob clockwise
to sequence forward through the waypoints. Turn the Rotary Knob
counter-clockwise to sequence backward through the waypoints.
