2.4 MAP DISPLAY SETUP
Map displays are used extensively in the aera 760 to provide situational awareness
in flight. Most aera 760 maps can display the following information:
• Airports, NAVAIDs, airspaces, airways, land data (highways, cities, lakes, rivers,
borders, etc.) with names
• Map Pointer information (distance and bearing to pointer, location of pointer,
name, and other pertinent information)
• Map range
• Aircraft icon (representing present position)
• Flight plan legs
• User waypoints
• Track vector
• Topography data
MAP ORIENTATION
Maps are shown in one of three different orientation options, allowing flexibility
in determining aircraft position relative to other items on the map (North Up), or for
determining where map items are relative to where the aircraft is going (Track Up), or
desired track up (DTK UP)).
• North Up aligns the top of the map display to north (default setting).
• Track Up aligns the top of the map display to the current ground track.
• Desired Track (DTK) Up aligns the top of the map display to the desired course.
NOTE: Map orientation can only be changed from the Navigation Map Option
Menu. All other maps (except weather maps) that show navigation data
reflect the orientation selected for the Navigation Map.
