TM 1-1510-225-10 3A-104 NOTE An offset waypoint (#OFF*) can be input with a radial based on the LAST TK value and distance calculated from the LAST GS value as well as the time elapsed from power off, provided significant changes to aircraft track or groundspeed have not been made. If the aircraft has turned or if the speed has changed, the pilot should estimate the track and distance traveled since loss of power. 9. Offset waypoint identifier – Insert. 10. ENTER key – Press. 11. Recorded or estimated radial – Insert LAST TK value or averaged value. 12. Recorded or estimated radial – Insert LAST TK value or averaged value. 13. Distance – Insert calculated distance in nautical miles and tenths of a nautical mile. 14. ENTER key – Press. 15. Waypoint coordinates – Verify for reasonability. 16. ENTER key – Press. 17. DIF - Check. a. If update is desired: ENTER key -Press. b. If update is not desired: NAV, PLAN, FPL, TUNE, VNAV, HDG, or D key – Press to cancel the HOLD. y. Creating/Changing Pilot Entered (Personalized) Waypoints. A personalized waypoint may be created by entering a non-ICAO waypoint identifier and inserting the desired position coordinates on the Waypoint page. The CDU has nonvolatile storage for up to 999 waypoints that are retained in memory only if entered on a stored flight plan. The ICAO identifiers stored in the database cannot be used for personalized waypoints. Select the desired flight plan and position the cursor over the desired field. If necessary, refer to the procedure for creating a flight plan or modifying a flight plan. (1) Creating Pilot Entered (Personalized) Waypoints. 1. Personalized identifier – Insert. 2. ENTER key – Press. 3. Latitude – Insert (N or S first, then degrees, minutes, and tenths of a minute). 4. ENTER key – Press. 5. Longitude – Insert (E or W first, then degrees, minutes, and tenths of a minute). 6. ENTER key – Press. (2) Changing Pilot Entered (Personalized) Waypoints. 1. Personalized identifier – Insert. 2. ENTER key – Press. Pilot Entered WPT page will appear. 3. Line selectkey – Press to position the cursor over POS field. 4. ENTER key – Press. 5. Latitude – Insert (N or S first, then degrees, minutes, and tenths of a minute). 6. ENTER key – Press. 7. Longitude – Insert (E or W first, then degrees, minutes, and tenths of a minute). 8. ENTER key – Press. NOTE If an offset waypoint from a pilot entered waypoint is programmed, the RAD and DIS can be changed, but the coordinatescannot be manually inserted. (3) Creating An Offset Waypoint. This procedure enables the system to create a waypoint at a given radial and distance from a known point. The known point (parent waypoint) may be any stored personalized or database waypoint.
