TIPS (Continued)

10. If the approach includes a DME arc, the DME arc intercept point

will be (a) on your present position radial off the arc VOR when you
select an arc IAF, or (b) the beginning of the arc if currently on a
radial beyond the arc limit. To adjust the arc intercept to be
compatible with a radar vector, bring up the first waypoint of the arc
in the Super NAV 5 page scanning field ( or under the cursor on
the FPL 0 page), press

F

, then

E

. Fly the arc in LEG. Adjust

the HSI or CDI course pointer with reference to the desired track
value on the Super NAV 5 page (it will flash when the pointer
needs to be adjusted). Left/right D-bar information is relative to the
arc. Displayed distance is not along the arc but straight to the
active waypoint. (The ARC radial is also displayed on the Super
NAV 5
page.)

11. Two nm from the FAF inbound and in LEG, the KLN 900 will go

into APR ACTV and the D-bar scaling will change from ±1.0 NM to
±0.3 NM.

12. APR ARM to APR ACTV is automatic provided all of the following

are satisfied:
a.

In APR ARM (normally automatic).

b.

In LEG mode!

c.

FAF is the active waypoint!

d.

Within 2 NM of the FAF.

e.

Outside the FAF.

f.

Inbound to the FAF.

g.

RAIM is available. (For early prediction go to STA 5 page.)

13. RAIM availability is mandatory for approach operation.
14. APR ACTV mode is mandatory for approach operation.
15. DIRECT-TO operation between the FAF and MAP cancels

approach ACTV. Fly the missed approach in APR ARM.

16. Flagged navigation inside the FAF may usually be restored by

pressing the external GPS APR button to change from ACTV to
ARM. Fly the missed approach procedure.

17. Instrument approaches using the KLN 900 may be essentially

automatic starting 30 NM out (with manual baro setting update) or it
may require judicious selection of the OBS and LEG modes.

18. APR ARM may be cancelled at any time by pressing the GPS APR

button. (A subsequent press will reselect it.)

C. PAGE MESSAGES - Messages that could appear during approach
operations. Refer to the Pilot’s Guide for a complete list of messages.

ACTV ANNUNCIATOR FAIL Indicates an annunciator drive circuit
failure. A maintenance write-up. Cross check the KLN 900 display for
status.

ADJUST NAV IND CRS TO XXX° Manually adjust the mechanical HSI
or CDI to the indicated value.

ARM ANNUNCIATOR FAIL Indicates an annunciator drive circuit
failure. A maintenance write-up. Cross check the KLN 900 display for
status.
