IFD400 Series Pilot Guide
3-4 Map Subsystem
TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
Map Content Control
Map features displayed are highly dependent on a
combination of the map view, map range, map declutter
settings, and user setup choices. For example, if the
flight plan concludes at an airfield, the airfield identifier
may be automatically decluttered in favor of the
waypoint identifier that represents the airfield from the
flight plan. In this example, both identifiers can be
made visible by ranging in the map to under 4nm.
NOTE
Heading vs. Track Depictions
In configurations in which aircraft heading information is
unavailable, the map display will orient the aircraft
ownship symbol and other map data to the aircraft
ground track and continue to display intruder aircraft
oriented to heading.
TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
Heading/Track Digital Display Can Be Removed
The Setup Page provides a means to remove the
heading/track digital readout box from the top of the
map. This is intended to provide a method to increase
usable map space, especially on dual IFD installations
where cleaner maps are desired.
