Flying to a VOR Station
The VXA-700 can indicate the deviation from the direct
course to a VOR station.
r Select a VOR station on your aeronautical chart and
turn the DIAL selector knob (or enter the frequency
directly with the keypad) to the frequency of the VOR
station.
r To indicate the deviation between your current flight
path and the desired course, press
Ò
to change
to the CDI (Course Deviation Indicator) mode. The
“COURSE DEVIATION ARROW” will appear on the dis-
play when your aircraft is off the direct course to the
VOR station.
r When your aircraft is off course to the right, the Course
Deviation Arrow display will show bars to the left side
of the diamond (“|||
¯
”). When your aircraft is off
course to the left, the Course Deviation Arrow dis-
play will show bars to the right side of the diamond
(“
¯
|||”). Correct your course until no bars appear
on either side of the CDI “diamond” (only (“
¯
”) will
be visible when the heading is correct).
