TM 1-1510-225-10 3A-102 3. BACKkey – Press. Cursor field will display MAN? to inform the pilot of the pending change. 4. ENTERkey – Press. The cursor will disappear and MAN will remain in the field confirming that leg changes must be made manually. NO AUTO LEG CHG message will appear on the System Messages page, however the MSG light will not illuminate. (c) Returning To Automatic Leg Change Mode. 1. NAV key – Press to display NAV 1 page. 2. Line select key – Press to position cursor over MAN. 3. BACK key – Press. The cursor disappears and AUTO remains in the field confirming return to the automatic leg change mode. NO AUTO LEG CHG message on the system messages page disappears unless the current TO waypoint is the last waypoint on the active flight plan. (7) External Waypoint Acceptance. Up to 99 external waypoints may be accepted from an interfaced radar or EFIS. When a waypoint is generated from this equipment, a DIRECT TO leg change is made to that waypoint. The generated waypoint will be designated EX#01 to EX#99. As the external waypoint (EX#) is off the flight plan, it will be separated from the active flight plan waypoint sequence and a NO AUTO LEG CHG message will appear on the System Messages page. The following procedure may be used to link the EX# waypoint into the flight plan sequence. 1. D key – Press. The display will show direct to the EX# waypoint with the complete active flight plan listed below. 2. Line select key – Press to position the cursor over the waypoint to follow the EX# waypoint. 3. EX# waypoint identifier – Insert. 4. ENTER key – Press. NOTE The EX# waypoint identifier will flash if an unassigned number is entered. EX# waypoint coordinates can only be assigned by an external source (radar or EFIS). 5. Waypoint page coordinates – Verify. 6. ENTER key – Press. 7. Waypoint sequence – Verify. 8. ENTER key – Press. CDU display will automatically advance to Navigation page and NO AUTO LEG CHG message will be removed from the System Messages page. (8) Present Position As A Waypoint. A special waypoint location is reserved for storing present position coordinates as a waypoint. The identifier for this waypoint is inserted as #1. The identifier may be used as a parent identifier for an offset waypoint by adding an *. NOTE Since waypoint #1 is frequently redefined, it is not retained in nonvolatile memory and the identifier #1 cannot be entered on a stored flight plan. It does, however, use up one of the 999 available waypoints, as do #OFF and EX waypoints. Waypoint #1 is redefined each time the HOLDkey is pressed. An example of the application of waypoint #1 is to store the coordinates of a point overflown to which you may wish to return. This is accomplished by pressing the HOLD key directly over that desired point. In this case these coordinateswould be stored under identifier #1 until either the HOLDkey is pressed again, updating #1, or the system is shut down.(9) Navigation At Extreme Latitudes (North Of 70 ºN Or South Of 60 °S). The procedures listed in this section contain instructions for operation of the flight management system at specified latitudes beyond the autocomputed magnetic variation mode. In all cases, the flight crew of any aircraft operating at these latitudes must consult the flight manual supplement in order to obtain satisfactory performance and accuracy. WARNING
