Avionics VOR/ILS (Option 302)
Using ILS Glide Slope Softkeys
To set the ILS Glide Slope DDM value in percentage (%)
This process sets a value for the difference in depth of modulation (DDM)
in %. DDM can be expressed either in terms of percentage (%) or as a
modulation index. A DDM of 1% is equivalent to 0.01 DDM.
1.
Press Aux Fctn > Avionics > ILS Glide Slope
2.
Press DDM/SDM
3.
Press DDM%
(Default value is 0.00%.)
4.
Enter a value within the range of the current SDM value.
Typically the SDM default value provides sufficient range (–80% to 80%)
for most applications.
If SDM is set to 99%, then the full range (-99% to 99%) of DDM is
available. The following demonstrates the limits of DDM’s range:
(-SDM) to (SDM)
As SDM’s value increases or decrease, so does DDM’s range.
To set the ILS Glide Slope SDM value
This process sets the sum of depth of modulation (SDM):
1.
Press Aux Fctn > Avionics > ILS Glide Slope
2.
Press DDM/SDM
3.
Press SDM
4.
Select a value from 0 to 99% and press Enter.
(Default value is 80%.)
The SDM value is calculated using the following equation:
SDM = [AM(90 Hz) + AM(150 Hz)] / 100
