4.2 Primary Screen 2: PLANNING
To access PLANNING screen
(GPS MAP → PLANNING, via joystick nudge)
The PLANNING screen is accessed from the
GPS MAP screen by moving the joystick away
from your current location (blue location icon).
The PLANNING screen displays a planning
icon (orange circle with a small black cross)
as soon as you move the joystick away from
your current location. Instead of a blue dot, a
small black cross is shown in the centre. From
the edges of the orange planning icon radiate
crosshairs as an additional visual cue that you
are in PLANNING mode rather than GPS MAP
mode. The orange planning icon stays in place
as you use the joystick to move the map.
The POSITION INFO screen may be accessed
from the PLANNING screen by centre pressing
the joystick, or by pressing the bottom right
Primary Screens button.
When a map is loaded, the PLANNING
screen shows a central default location for that
particular map.
There is a data box overlay which shows;
• Grid reference – format options are given in
GPS Settings / Position Display Format
option).
• Altitude for this location – elevation above sea
level, obtained from base maps (UK) or from
map cards (non-UK).
• Distance from your last known location, i.e.
where you last acquired a GPS lock. This is
useful as a ‘rangender’.
• Bearing from your last known location –
format options given in Compass Settings.
Note: This data overlay is not congurable by
the user, unlike the 2-Data Box and 4-Data Box
layouts available on the GPS MAP screen.
When the crosshairs are moved over an OOI
or a route, an OOI/route indicator icon
appears at the bottom of the screen. Centre
pressing the joystick brings up further
information via the 'Choose Information
Type' window.
