Miscellaneous Message Advisories
Alerts Window Message Comments
FPL WPT LOCK – Flight plan waypoint
is locked.
Upon power-up, the G1000 system detects that a stored flight plan waypoint is
locked. This occurs when an aviation database update eliminates an obsolete way
-
point. The flight plan cannot find the specified waypoint and flags this message. This
can also occur with user waypoints in a flight plan that is deleted.
Remove the waypoint from the flight plan if it no longer exists in any database,
OR
update the waypoint name/identifier to reflect the new information.
FPL WPT MOVE
– Flight plan
waypoint moved.
The system has detected that a waypoint coordinate has changed due to a new
aviation database update. Verify that stored flight plans contain correct waypoint
locations.
TIMER EXPIRD – Timer has expired. The system notifies the pilot that the timer has expired.
DB CHANGE – Database changed.
Verify user modified procedures.
This occurs when a stored flight plan contains procedures that have been manually
edited. This alert is issued only after an aviation database update. Verify that the
user-modified procedures in stored flight plans are correct and up to date.
FPL TRUNC
– Flight plan has been
truncated.
This occurs when a newly installed aviation database eliminates an obsolete ap-
proach or arrival used by a stored flight plan. The obsolete procedure is removed
from the flight plan. Update flight plan with current arrival or approach.
