Receiver Operations
The GNS 530W includes digitally-tuned VOR/
localizer and glideslope receivers with the desired
frequency selected on the
VLOC window
, along the
left-hand side of the display. Frequency selection
is performed by pressing the
small left knob and
turning the small and large left knobs to select the
desired frequency.
Ident Audio and Vol-

VLOC ident is enabled
by pressing the VLOC
volume knob. When VLOC
ident is enabled, an “ID”
indication appears in the
upper right corner of the
VLOC window — to the
immediate right of “VLOC”.

adjusted using the VLOC
volume knob. Turn the
VLOC volume knob clock-
wise to increase volume,
or counterclockwise to
decrease volume.

VLOC Tuning Window
VLOC frequencies are selected with the tuning
cursor in the standby VLOC frequency field, and using
the
small and large left knobs to dial in the desired
frequency. The standby frequency always appears
below the active frequency. The active frequency is the
frequency currently in use.
NOTE: The tuning cursor normally appears in the
COM window, unless placed in the VLOC window
by pressing the small left knob. When the tuning
cursor is in the VLOC window, it automatically
returns to the COM window after 30 seconds of
inactivity.
The active frequency in either window cannot be
accessed directly — only the standby frequency is
highlighted by the tuning cursor.
Push for ident audio. Turn to adjust
audio volume.
Push to toggle tuning cursor between
COM and VLOC windows. Turn to ad-
just the kHz value (the portion after
the decimal point) of the standby
VLOC frequency.
Turn to adjust the MHz value (the
portion before the decimal point) of
the standby VLOC frequency.
