BendixKing GC 360A - Manual (Page 5)

(1) MODE SELECTOR
Activates any of the GC 360A’s six
modes of operation. With the mode
selector in the OFF position, the
radar graphics unit is inoperative.
The radar is capable of displaying
weather/ground surveillance infor-
mation only.
Selecting either √ LST or EMER pre-
pares the GC 360A to run aircraft
checklists programmed with the KA
68 or KA 68A Pocket Terminal (see
Programming, page 21). When you
select a checklist mode, with the
weather radar operating in Standby,
the GC 360A displays the appropri-
ate Index page and assigns check-
list functions to the five pushbutton
controls on the left half of the face-
plate.
While programming checklist infor-
mation with the Pocket Terminal,
use the mode selector to store
checklists in either the normal or
emergency checklist memory.
Select the Standby mode to erase
all Nav graphics temporarily from
the screen whenever you want an
unobstructed view of the weather
ahead. You may also select
Standby prior to aircraft shutdown
and remove power from the GC
360A with the avionics master
switch.
Activate any of the three navigation
modes to display navigation graph-
ics on the radar screen. These
modes also assign navigation func-
tions to all controls on the radar
graphics unit’s faceplate. The GC
360A must be interfaced to either a
LNAV or a KNR 634A navigation
receiver and a KDM 706A/DM 441B
DME as Nav 2 to generate graphics
in the Nav 2 or BOTH modes.
(2) KA 68 PHONE PLUG
