When using the split Map-Nearest view, the row that is
highlighted in the Nearest list will also be highlighted in cyan on
the map.
For those rows that contain a frequency, touching the frequency,
or using the bottom knob to highlight it and then pushing the knob
will nominate the frequency into the standby slot.
Some rows contain an icon to indicate that more information
about the facility is available on the Info tab. To quickly access
the Info tab, either touch or rotate the inner knob to move the
cursor to surround the icon. Then touch or push the knob to
display the Info tab for the specified facility.
For airports that have a METAR associated with them, a colored
METAR flag will be displayed on the right side.
Each Nearest type list can be scrolled either via touch (use a
vertical swipe of the finger) or via the bottom knob.
If the highlighted item is an airport, pressing the Direct-To key on
the bezel will display the Direct-To green dialog box with the
highlighted airport pre-populated as the Direct-To location.
Pressing the NRST key will bring up the Nearest tab in the split
Map-Nearest view. Each subsequent push of the “NRST” key will
step to the next nearest data type.
If the Nearest page is left for 60 seconds or more and then is
returned to, the Nearest Airports selection will be the active
nearest data type no matter what the last nearest data type may
have been. For example, if the Nearest VORs selection was the
most recent display of nearest data, and then the pilot selects a
map page for more than 60 seconds, when the Nearest tab is
next selected, Nearest Airports data is now displayed and not
Nearest VORs.
