Sounds odd but maybe you have different software.
On our T7's at least the maximum radius circle you can “draw” on the ND around a fix using the FMC fix page is 511miles (at least on the software we have, last tested a couple of days ago )....
Let me check what our current FCOM says, it certainly used to specify the max of 511, funnily enough...
....
Just checked up to date FCOM and at that reference we still have "..distance (up to 511nm) only entries must start with a slash (/..........."
