G1000 Setup For Lat/Long Display

Consider Aux Pg 3 to set degrees, minutes, hundredths Select Menu, Map Setup, Land Group: - Text Med or Large (gives L/L text) - Range > than display (suggest 100) (displays Lat/Long lines)

For Lat/Long in minutes.hundredths (W 77 52.50 instead of W 77 52’ 30”) To display lat/long lines and lat/long labels

With Lat/Long displayed,The cursor is fairly easy to Place on L/L coordinates to create user waypoints

L/L of cursor displays for coordinate refinement

Recommend we use a naming standard of Grid #/letter and corner

This leads to the question: once we start filling up waypoints, which ones can we erase?

Easy G1000 User Waypoint Setup

How To: 1. Wpt /User page2. Depress cursor knob and move to waypoint3. Hit Enter4. Give it a name

G1000 Inflight Use – Grid Search

Option 1: PFD 10 mi scope (situational awareness), MFD 2 mi scope (accuracy)

Select a PFD inset scale large enough to display enough of the search grid for situational awareness

Select 2 mi range on the MFD—this displays L/L in ½ mile grids

The grid lines can be hard to see with topo background selected . Recommend turning topo off and terrain on (for altitude alerting <1000’—note: the terrain grids are also ½ mile sections)

G1000 Inflight Use – Grid Search

Option 2: PFD 5000’ scope (accuracy), MFD as required (situational awareness)

5000’ PFD inset scale gives a display of ½ mile lat/long grids. May need to turn topo off to read grids.

Select MFD scale as desired for situational awareness
