15.9 Keyboard
15.9.1 General
A left side and optionally right side keyboards are available to provide an additional
interface between the pilot or copilot and the PFD, MFD. The keyboard is located
behind the switch panel below the PFD and is accessed by pushing a door cover that
will fold under the keyboard when it is deployed. The keyboards do not replace any
functionality on the PFD and MFD and are designed to provide a secondary and in
some cases easier means of selection and programming on the displays by providing
one button push functions that might require several steps on the PFD or MFD. The
keyboard is divided into several key groups: Composite, Transponder, Primary
Function, Alpha, Numerical, and COM/NAV.
