PRIMARY FLIGHT DISPLAY
Bearing Pointers and Information Windows
Up to two bearing pointers can be displayed on the
HSI. Pressing the
PFD
softkey provides access to the
BRG1 and BRG2 softkeys. The BRG1 pointer is a single
cyan line with an open arrowhead at the end. The BRG2
pointer is a double cyan line with an open arrowhead at
the end. The bearing pointers never override the CDI.
When at least one bearing pointer is displayed (but not
necessarily visible if there is no data available), a white
ring appears around the center of the compass rose to vi-
sually separate the bearing pointer(s) from the CDI.
When a bearing pointer is displayed, its associated
Information Window is also displayed. The Bearing 1
(BRG1) Information Window is displayed to the lower
left of the HSI and includes the bearing source (NAV1 or
GPS), a pointer icon, frequency (NAV1), and distance to
the bearing source. The Bearing 2 (BRG2) Information
Window is displayed to the lower right of the HSI and in-
cludes the bearing source (NAV2 or GPS), a pointer icon,
frequency (NAV2), and distance to the bearing source.
If GPS is the bearing source, the active waypoint
identifier is displayed in lieu of a frequency. If an active
waypoint is not selected, the bearing pointer is removed
from the HSI and “NO DATA” is displayed in the informa-
tion window.
If the NAV radio is the bearing source and is tuned to
an ILS frequency, the bearing pointer is removed from the
HSI and the frequency is replaced with “ILS”. If the NAV
radio is not receiving the tuned VOR station, the bear-
ing pointer is removed from the HSI and the frequency
field displays “NO DATA”. When NAV1 or NAV2 is the
selected bearing source, the frequency is replaced by the
station identifier when the station is in range.
