ACTIVE WAYPOINT (1L): Active waypoint identifier in reverse video. Special attributes are displayed in inverse
video white (refer to the note below).
NOTE: The following conditions apply before sequencing the xA legs:
1- the leg following the MAP shall be an altitude terminated leg (i.e. xA) and;
2- the aircraft altitude shall be above the xA leg altitude constraint and;
3- the aircraft travelled the distance beyond the "predicted termination point of xA leg".
If condition 2 below is met but condition 3 is not, the FMS declare the altitude terminated leg sequencing
in "transition phase". When the altitude terminated leg sequencing is in "transition phase", the FMS
indicate the transition by using inverse video.
ACTIVE WAYPOINT PROCEDURE (1L): Special procedure associated to the active waypoint.
"/H": Holding pattern.
"/O": Fly over waypoint.
DTG (ACTDTG) (1L): Distance to go (2nd column) from present position to the active waypoint.
ETA (ACTETA) (1R): Estimated time of arrival at the active waypoint. On selection will change to ETE (also
effects a change on PROGRESS 2/4).
ETE (1R): Displays estimated time en-route to active waypoint.
NOTE: When the aircraft is on ground, the ETE/ETA field is blank.
NEXT COURSE (2L): NEXT flight plan course True (superscript T)/Magnetic (
o
).
NEXT WAYPOINT (2L): Display the identifier at the waypoint following the active waypoint. Special attributes
are displayed in inverse video white (refer to NOTE 1).
PROCEDURE AT NEXT WPT (2L): Display special procedure associated with the next waypoint.
"/H": Holding pattern.
"/O": Overfly.
DTG (2L): Distance to go (2nd column) from present position to next waypoint.
ETA (2R): Display estimated time of arrival at the next waypoint.
ETE (2R): Displays estimated time en-route to the next waypoint.
NOTE: When the aircraft is on ground, the ETE/ETA field is blank.
TRUE/MAG WIND [3L]: Current true wind direction and speed (in knots). Displayed in small font when the wind
value is computed by the FMS, in large font when the value is frozen (refer to definition below). When the
scratchpad is empty and A/C is outside the high latitude regions (as configured by the North and South polar
regions, or by the default latitude of N73 and S60 deg ), pressing LSK 3L will toggle between the True and
Magnetic display options. TRUE/MAG toggling is disabled, the > is not displayed, and TRUE is displayed in the
title line when the A/C is in the high latitude regions. When the scratchpad contains a valid wind entry, pressing
LSK 3L will enter the wind overriding the displayed wind, if the wind value is frozen. The wind is frozen at low
speed and under failure conditions (TAS or heading input failure). Wind entry is also allowed when TAS and
heading are valid in DME/DME and VOR/DME navigation modes. After a cold start on ground, the wind value is
not displayed (field blank).
