3.4.2 Data Entry
Now that you've learned how to select the desired page,
you're ready to learn the means of entering data. It is
necessary to enter data, for example, in order to specify a
Direct To waypoint of your choice. The general proce-
dure for entering a waypoint identifier is described below.
The Trip Planning 3 (TRI 3) page is shown in this exam-
ple but the procedure is applicable to many other pages.
You need not perform these steps now since they will be
described again shortly.
1. If the cursor is not positioned on the screen location
where you desire to enter the waypoint identifier (fig-
ure 3-39), press C (left C for left page or right
C for right page) to turn on the cursor function (fig-
ure 3-40).
2. If required, rotate the outer knob (left outer knob for
left page or right outer knob for right page) to position
the cursor in the desired location (figure 3-41).
3. Rotate the appropriate inner knob to select the first
character of the waypoint identifier (figure 3-42).
4. Turn the appropriate outer knob one step clockwise to
move the cursor to the second character position (fig-
ure 3-43).
5. Rotate the inner knob to select the second character
(figure 3-44).
6. Use the outer and inner knobs in this manner until the
complete waypoint identifier is displayed (figure 3-45).
Note that you may not have to enter the last charac-
ters of the identifier because each time you enter a
character, the KLN 900 offers you the first identifier in
the database beginning with the characters you have
entered.
7. If ENT is flashing in the lower middle segment of the
display, then press E. This will display a waypoint
page on the right side of the screen for the waypoint
identifier you just entered (figure 3-46).
8. Verify the waypoint information displayed, and then
press E again to approve the waypoint page. The
right side will return to the page previously displayed
(figure 3-47).
