NAV/COM
To auto-tune a NAV frequency if the desired
approach is already loaded:
1. Press the PROC key to open the Procedures
window.
2. Turn the
large FMS
knob to highlight the
‘ACTIVATE APPROACH’ menu option and
press the
ENT key. The approach primary NAV
frequency becomes automatically loaded into
the standby field of the selected NAV radio.
When loading or activating an approach, the primary
NAV frequency may be loaded into the NAV tuning box by
highlighting the frequency in
the Select Approach window
using the FMS knob, then pressing the ENT key.
If the system is in GPS mode when a VOR/ILS
approach is loaded or activated, the approach primary
NAV frequency is automatically loaded into the active
field of NAV1.
The NAV frequency is also automatically loaded
upon vector-to-final activation. An approach can also
be activated with the
MENU
key when the Flight Plan
window is open.
Figure 3-35 Activating an Approach
NOTE: When a VOR/ILS approach has been acti-
vated in GPS mode, if the ILS CDI Capture option
on the AUX 4 Page is set to AUTO, the system
automatically switches to NAV mode as the final
approach course is intercepted (if within 15 nm
from the FAF). Please see the Multi Function
Display section for details on this feature.
