E6B CALCULATOR

The E6B Calculator in the Main Menu calculates Density Altitude, True Airspeed, and Winds Aloft (Head Wind, Tail Wind, Wind From, and Wind Speed), based on information you enter.

Accessing the E6B calculator:

1)Press the MENU Key twice to open the Main Menu.

2)Turn or move the FMS Joystick to highlight ‘E6B Calculator’, and press the ENT Key. The E6B Calculator Page is displayed.

•Indicated Altitude—required entry for density altitude/true airspeed calcula- tion. Enter the aircraft’s altimeter reading. A suggested indicated altitude will be displayed based on the GPS altitude.

•Baro Pressure—when the unit is receiving SiriusXM weather information, the field automatically updates to the barometric pressure of the nearest METAR. If SiriusXM weather information is not available you need to enter the current barometric pressure.

•Calibrated Airspeed— required entry for density altitude/true airspeed calculation. Enter the aircraft’s airspeed indicator value.

•Total Air Temp— required entry for density altitude/true airspeed calculation. Total Air Temperature (TAT) is the temperature of the air including the heating effect caused
