If the parallel track proposed by the offset direction and distance is not allowed by the system, the activation
prompt is displayed, but disabled. Parallel Track cannot be activated if a course is set using direct-to or if the
active leg is the first leg of the departure procedure. Attempting to activate parallel track with these conditions
resultsinthemessage‘ParallelTrackUnavailableInvalidRouteGeometry’.Ifanapproachlegisactivethestatus

indicates that the system is unable to activate the parallel track because of invalid geometry.
