FMS Subsystem 3-53
To manually set the route name, move the cursor to the route
name field and then press the right knob button or touch the field.
Either use the keyboard or turn the right outer and inner knobs to
enter the name. When complete, press the “Enter” button on the
keyboard or press the right knob button to accept the new route
name.
TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
Saving Altitude Constraints
The system will save manually entered altitude
constraints, but only for direct legs. Manually
entered altitude constraints on a leg within a
published procedure (SID, STAR, Approach, or
Airway) will not be saved.
COPYING A ROUTE
To make a copy an existing stored route, move the cursor to
surround the route to be copied and then press the “Copy” LSK.
A copy of the route will have been created and the route will be
presented for editing. Note that the route name remains
unchanged, so unless something is edited to cause the route
name to be changed, upon return to the route list there will be two
routes with the same name.
