ACTIVATING CHECKLISTS

The checklist Index page automati-
cally appears on the radar screen
when you select either normal or
emergency checklist modes. It pro-
vides the name of every checklist
available in that mode. You may
return to the Index page at any time
by pressing the GC 360A’s Index
key.

When the Index page first appears
on the screen the cursor highlight
will be positioned on the first check-
list name on the list. If that is the
checklist you want to run, press the
cursor check-off key to summon it
from the system’s memory.
Otherwise, use the cursor position
keys to highlight the appropriate
checklist and then press the check-
off key to bring it to the screen. The
checklist will appear under its iden-
tifying header line, with the cursor
highlight on the first item to be
checked. All other line items will
appear in magenta to indicate their
unchecked status.

EXECUTING CHECKLISTS

Checking off the highlighted check-
list item with the cursor check-off
key changes its color code to green
and repositions the cursor to the
next magenta line item in
sequence. You may step through
the checklist in order by succes-
sively checking off items with the
key, or you may run the checklist in
any order you want by repositioning
the cursor with the position keys.

Pressing the cursor check-off key
upon reaching the end of a checklist
relocates the cursor to the first
unchecked line item on the list.
Press the check-off key again if you
want to check off the item and pro-
ceed to the next unchecked line.
Otherwise you may use the cursor
position keys to move the cursor a
single line at a time, regardless of
color coding. It is not possible to
highlight either a white header line
or a cyan system annunciator with
the cursor.

After all line items in a list have
been checked off, the index page
reappears on the screen. The cur-
sor automatically highlights the next
checklist in sequence.
