Detailed Operation
Pan
The Pan keys are used to
move the display around so
you can see beyond the initial
boundaries of the screen. The
PAN
function key is one of the
“smart” keys available at the
bottom of the screen. Pressing
the rotary knob will also activate
the Pan function. When you
select the Pan function, four
“arrow” keys appear on the right
side of the screen next to the
Menu Item
keys. Move the map in the desired direc-
tion by pressing the
Menu Item
key next to the arrow
that shows which way you want the map to move.
Press the
PAN
key again to exit the Pan mode. While
panning, a green reference line is drawn from the
center of the viewed area back to your current position.
Info
Press the
INFO
key to toggle viewing of informa-
tion about the current “TO” waypoint. Press the
INFO
key again to hide the information.
Each press of the
key will step through the
available information for the current “TO” waypoint.
The number of pages depends on the amount of infor-
mation about the waypoint. Press the
WX
key to view
any available METARs for the selected waypoint. Note
that not all airports will have METARs available. The
Wx
key is available with the GDL 90 UAT and GDL
69/69A FIS sensors.
Runway diagrams of airports will be displayed in
the same orientation as the main map (i.e., North Up,
Track Up, or DTK Up). If SafeTaxi information is avail-
able for the selected airport, the SafeTaxi detail will be
shown.

Info In Pan Mode
The
INFO
smart key supports operation in con-
junction with the PAN feature.
On any of the maps (Custom Map, IFR and VFR),
entering the INFO mode while pan is active, will show
information about the nearest airport to the center of
the screen. This allows panning around the immediate
area and obtaining information about airports in the
vicinity without changing the current “TO” waypoint.
While in this mode, only the
INFO
smart key is
highlighted. The
PAN
key is highlighted when exiting
the Info mode. Only information about airports can be
obtained with this feature.
