2.3.4.4. Deviation Off-Scale Indication
1
Whenever the course deviation exceeds the maximum displayable range of 2.5 dots,
the CDI or deviation diamond is shown as a hollow, ghosted image pegged to the
corresponding side (
Figure 2-41
and
Figure 2-42
). As soon as the CDI or deviation
diamond comes into range, it turns solid green, making it easy to identify when the
indicator is “alive”.
2.3.4.5. Auto Course Select
1
When a GPS is selected as the CDI’s navigation source, the default setting of the
EFD1000 Pro PFD is Auto Course Select. When Auto Course Select is enabled, the
GPS will automatically set the Course Pointer to the current GPS course (CRS) value
whenever the GPS sequences between waypoints. This capability relieves the pilot from
having to manually set the course at each waypoint along a GPS route. When Auto
Course Select is enabled, the pilot cannot adjust the CRS value.
Auto Course Select is indicated by an inverse A on a green background, adjacent
to both the numerical CRS value and the CRS Left Knob State. (
Figure 2-43
and
Figure 2-44
).
If the GPS navigator enters the OBS or HOLD mode, Auto Course Select is automatically
disabled on the EFD1000 Pro PFD until the GPS navigator resumes waypoint
sequencing. The pilot can disable Auto Course Select from Page 1 of the Menu.
