Approach (APR) Mode Using a
DG from ROL Mode
(All Angle Intercept)

The Approach (APR) mode

allows the autopilot to intercept and
track LOC, VOR/RNAV and GPS
courses.

To arm APR mode (with the

KAP 140 currently in the ROL
mode):

1. Maneuver the aircraft to the
desired intercept angle prior to
selecting ROL mode.

2. Select the desired frequency for
LOC, VOR or RNAV. For GPS,
verify the desired approach.

3. OBS Knob - SELECT desired
approach course. (For a localizer,
set it to serve as a memory aid.)

4. APR Mode Selector Button -
PRESS. Note APR ARM annun-
ciated.

NOTE: When APR is selected, the
autopilot will flash HDG for 5 sec-
onds to remind the pilot to reset the
HDG bug to the desired approach
course. Check the heading dis-
played on the DG against the mag-
netic compass and reset if neces-
sary.
