Figure 2-17 HSI Map
A digital indication of the current heading appears above the rotating compass card. A magenta diamond
on the HSI represents the current track over the ground the aircraft is flying. To the upper left of the HSI, the
Selected Heading is shown in cyan, which corresponds to the cyan heading bug on the compass rose. The
Desired Track (DTK) is shown in magenta to the upper right of the HSI when the selected navigation source
is GPS and OBS Mode is not active. The Selected Course (CRS) is shown to the upper right of the HSI when
the selected navigation source is VOR or LOC and in magenta when the selected navigation source is GPS with
OBS Mode active.

Navigation angles (track, heading, course, bearing) are corrected to the computed magnetic deviation or
referenced to true north (T), set on the ‘Aux - System Setup 1’ Page. When an approach referenced to true
north has been loaded into the flight plan, the system generates an alert to change the navigation angle setting
to True at the appropriate time.
