course) to any waypoint and establishing an offset parallel course. NAVs, COMMs, ADFs and transponders can be tuned through the system or by using the individual control heads. GENERAL TERMS FIELD: A line of information. CURSOR: Yellow rectangular box placed over a field to enter or change the information in that field.
CONTROLS AND INDICA T ORS ON: Depress and release the ON Key to apply power to the sys- tem. There is a warm-up period of approximately 30 seconds. The display illumination will ini- tially be set at 75% of full bright. Depressing the ON Key for approximately three seconds will initiate the system power off sequence.
Depressing the MSG Key will display the message page. The newest message will be indicated with a flashing asterisk to the left of the message. If the message requires some action be taken by the operator, the MSG annunciator will remain on steadily until the action is completed.
BACK (BACK) KEY: The BACK Key is used to erase errors and page backward when the cursor is not dis- played. It can also be used to change data in a field if the cur- sor is present. SPACE (SP) KEY: The SP Key is used to enter a space when entering a mes- sage on an AFIS Page.
PREVIOUS (PRV) KEY: The PRV Key is used to display the previous page of a section or subsection. This key also allows the operator to remain in a section or subsection by loop- ing from the first to the last and back to the first page of that section or subsection.

Page Display Definitions 2-71 GNS-X L Flight Management System Rev. 0 Oct/96 When the waypoint has been previously defined the coordinates will be displayed and the radial and distance values will be computed based on the location of the parent waypoint.
Page Display Definitions 2-72 GNS-X L Flight Management System Rev. 0 Oct/96 #0 will be defined as the point at which the aircraft completes the turn and intercepts the direct course to the fix. #0 will momentarily be dis- played on an EFIS map. #0 can only be defined by the system.
Page Display Definitions 2-73 GNS-X L Flight Management System Rev. 0 Oct/96 OBSOLETE WAYPOINT Obsolete Waypoints are typically created when a multiply defined database waypoint used on a stored flight plan is no longer found in the database. This may happen when a new data-base is loaded.
