Display Areas
The
primary display
area shows either a 360-degree or a 70-degree
ARC view, as indicated by the white compass ring. The white airplane
represents the aircraft’s current position. The primary display area
may also depict the current GPS flight plan, airport, navaids,
intersections, airspace and/or Stormscope
®
data if the map feature
has been enabled. Several indicators (see below) are also presented
within the primary display area.
The
upper display
area presents data from the selected course
navigation instrument. The actual data displayed depends on the
navigation source (VOR/DME, GPS, or loran) but it will generally
include bearing, distance and ground-speed, if available. The upper
display area also includes information on the map status, WX-500
Stormscope

status (if installed), and an annunciation of whether the
VOR nav display is currently receiving either a localizer or a full ILS
(localizer/glideslope) signal.
