INDEX

When a bearing pointer is displayed, its associated information window is also displayed. The Bearing

Information windows (Figure 2-22) are displayed to the lower sides of the HSI and show:

• Bearing source (NAV, GPS, ADF)

• Pointer icon (single line for BRG1, double line for BRG2)

• Frequency (NAV, ADF)

• Station/waypoint identifier (NAV, GPS)

• GPS-derived great circle distance to bearing source

If the NAV radio is the bearing source and is tuned to an ILS frequency (refer to the Audio Panel and CNS

Section for information on tuning the radios), the bearing pointer is removed from the HSI and the frequency
is replaced with “ILS”. When NAV1 or NAV2 is the selected bearing source, the frequency is replaced by the
station identifier when the station is within range. If GPS is the bearing source, the active waypoint identifier
is displayed in lieu of a frequency.

The bearing pointer is removed from the HSI and “NO DATA” is displayed in the information window if:

• The NAV radio is not receiving the tuned VOR station

• GPS is the bearing source and an active waypoint is not selected

Selecting bearing display and changing sources:

1)

Press the PFD Softkey.

2)

Press a BRG Softkey to display the desired bearing pointer and information window with a NAV source.

3)

Press the BRG Softkey again to change the bearing source to GPS.

4)

Press the BRG Softkey a third time to change the bearing source to ADF (note: ADF radio installation is
optional).

5)

To remove the bearing pointer and information window, press the BRG Softkey again.

The DME Information Window (Figure 2-22) is displayed above the BRG1 Information Window and shows

the DME label, tuning mode (NAV1, NAV2, or HOLD), frequency, and distance. When a signal is invalid,
the distance is replaced by “–.– – NM”. Refer to the Audio Panel and CNS Section for information on tuning
the radios.

Displaying the DME Information Window:

1)

Press the PFD Softkey.

2)

Press the DME Softkey to display the DME Information Window above the BRG1 Information Window.
