The FMS tunes the radio to the entered frequency and
searches the Candidates List of local navaids. When no
match is found, the FMS searches the navaids listed in the
flight plan (e.g., ILS). The frequency and identifier of the
first matching navaid is displayed on the PROGRESS page.
When no matches are identified, the identifier field remains
dashed.
The FMS does not use ILS LOC/GS data for position computations.
When a DME is associated with an ILS, the FMS can use DME in
position computation.
The small letter in front of the navaid identifier in the lower part of the
PROGRESS page indicate the tuning mode for the NAV radios (VOR
and DME). The tuning modes are as follows:
D
A (autotune)
D
V (VOR displayed as navigation source, autotune suspended or
preview mode selected)
D
R (remote tune)
D
M (manual tune).
Regardless of the tuning mode, the FMS constantly tunes the scanning
channels of the DME (when available) for position update.
