KLN 89/KLN 89B Pilot’s Guide Basic GPS Operation 3.7.3. SELECTING WAYPOINTS BY SCANNING You may also select waypoints by scanning through them. This may be done with the cursor either on or off. To select a waypoint by scanning with the cursor off: 1. Select the page type for the waypoint you are looking for (APT, VOR, NDB, INT or USR). 2. Pull the right inner knob to the “out” position. 3. Turn the right inner knob clockwise to scan through the waypoints in alphabetical order, or counterclockwise to scan in reverse alphabetical order. Remember that numbers are considered lower in order than letters. Thus, the airport identifier KA2 comes before KAAF. You may also want to scan waypoints with the cursor on. This is especially useful if you remember the first part of the identifier, or if you wanted to scan all airports that start with a KL, for example. Let’s give it a try. To select a waypoint by scanning with the cursor on: 1. Select the page type for the waypoint you are looking for (APT, VOR, NDB, INT or USR). In this case, we want the APT 1 page. 2. Turn on the cursor (B). It will appear over the first character of the waypoint identifier. Select a K with the right inner knob. 3. Move the cursor one place to the right and select an L (figure 376). 4. Move the cursor one place to the right and pull the right inner knob out. The last two characters of the waypoint identifier will be flashing (figure 3-77). 3-23 åå.ånm| KL3 850ft åååååå|WUNNUMMIN LAKE Leg|WUNNIMMIN LAKE *CRSR*|ON APT VOR NDB INT USR ACT NAV FPL CAL SET OTH Figure 3-76 åå.ånm| KL3 850ft åååååå|WUNNUMMIN LAKE Leg|WUNNIMMIN LAKE *CRSR*|ON APT VOR NDB INT USR ACT NAV FPL Figure 3-77 CAL SET OTH Basic GPS Operation Chapter 3 NOTE: The faster you turn the knob while scanning, the larger the step through the waypoints. This variable rate scanning allows you to get from one end of the list to the other very quickly. When the knob is turned slowly, you will go through the waypoints one at a time.
