Map Page

After the GPS 500 acquires satellites and computes

a position, the Map Page (Figure 1-13) appears

automatically.

Fields

The Map Page displays the present position (using an

airplane symbol) relative to nearby airports, VORs, NDBs,

intersections, user waypoints, and airspace boundaries.

The route is displayed as a solid line.

Optional data elds for destination waypoint (WPT),

desired track (DTK), track (TRK), distance to waypoint

(DIS), and ground speed (GS) appear on the right-hand

side of the display. These elds are user selectable (Section

2.4, Selecting Desired On-screen Data) to allow the pilot

to congure the unit. Available settings include: altitude,

bearing, enroute safe altitude, estimated time of arrival,

minimum safe altitude, and ground track.

A Map Setup Page is provided to designate the

maximum range at which each map feature appears.

These settings provide an automatic decluttering of the

map (based upon preferences) while adjusting the range.

See Section 14.3 for denitions of these navigation terms.

While viewing the Map Page, the pilot can quickly

declutter and remove many of the background map details

by pressing the CLR Key (repeatedly) until the desired

detail is depicted.

To change the map range, press the up arrow (to zoom

out) or the down arrow (to zoom in) of the RNG (map

range) Key. The current map range is depicted in the

lower left corner of the Map Display.

Direct-to Navigation

The GPS 500 can use direct point-to-point navigation

to provide guidance from takeoff to touchdown, even

in the IFR environment. Once a destination is selected,

the unit provides speed, course, and distance data based

upon a direct course from the present position to the

destination. A destination can be selected from any page

with the Direct-to Key.

Selecting a direct-to destination:

1) Press the Direct-to Key. The Select Direct-to

Waypoint Page appears with the destination

ﬁeld highlighted.

2) Turn the small right knob to enter the ﬁrst

letter of the destination waypoint identiﬁer.

The destination waypoint may be an airport,

VOR, NDB, intersection, or user waypoint,

as long as it is in the database or stored in

memory as a user waypoint.

3) Turn the large right knob to the right to move

the cursor to the next character position.
