SCREEN LAYOUT (WINDOWS)

The GNS 430' s display is divided into three separate
'windows' (or screen areas). The left 1/4 of the display
provides a COM window (top two lines) and a VLOC
window (bottom two lines). The right 3/4 of the display
consists of a GPS window, which shows the various
navigation, waypoint information and settings 'pages'.

Each unique screen of information is referred to as
a page. Pages are typically selected using the small and
large right knobs, with the cursor removed from the GPS
Window. See pages 6 and 7 for details on arrangement of
the GNS 430' s main pages.

CURSORS

There are two separate cursors: a tuning cursor and a
GPS window cursor. The tuning cursor is used to select
the standby COM or VLOC frequency. If desired, press
the small left knob to move the tuning cursor to VLOC
Window. Then, use the small and large left knobs to
select the desired frequency. The COM Flip-flop and
VLOC Flip-flop keys are used to activate the selected
