First, select and activate the desired flightplan in your navigation receiver. Then, select
EXTernal NAVigation in the Argus. (Root, FLIGHT PLANS/WPTS, EXTERNAL
NAV.) This will place you in an Argus map mode. You can take this opportunity to
verity that the desired flightplan appears in the PLAN mode if you wish.
Now, again enter the CREATE FLIGHT PLAN menu as described above, and select
COPY ACTIVE FLIGHT PLAN. The Argus will read the data from the nav receiver
and put it in a newly created flightplan just as if you had entered the data manually.
(Note: if you try to do this while tliere is no external flight plan being received, the
Argus will notify you by a screen message.)
When copying a flightplan, either one previously stored in the Argus, or one copied
from the navigation receiver, the copy will be saved and you will be placed in the
MODIFY WPT IN FP menu. This way, you can make any changes required in the
copy. After copying a FP from an external navigation receiver, be sure to check the
waypoint types. The Argus will not always select the right waypoint type if, for
example, it is an airport colocated with a VOR. Use MODify to select the waypoint
in question and use FIND NEXT to select the correct waypoint.
