ADVANCED OPERATION (VOR NAVIGATION: AIR BAND)

To Select the VOR Mode

rWhen entering the NAV band (108.000 - 117.975 MHz), the VXA-700selects the VOR mode automati- cally. The “Course Indicator” will appear on the dis- play, and the “TO” or “FROM” indicator will appear at the right of the “Course Indicator” on the display. Note: The “COURSE INDICATOR” indicates “---°” when either your aircraft is too far away from the VOR sta- tion or if the frequency is not correctly set to that of the VOR station. Conversely, the “Course Indicator” will indicate “Loc” when a localizer signal is being received.

rThe “TO” or “FROM” flag indicators indicate whether the VOR navigation information is based on a course leading to the VOR station or leading away from the VOR station.

rTo change the flag from “TO” to “FROM” or vice versa, press the Ò or keys, respectively.

rThe (small) frequency indication may be toggled to display using larger characters (but “COURSE INDICA- TOR” and “TO”/“FROM” flag are reduced in size), if

you assign the “XFER” feature to the key. See page 44 for details.
