START PYLON NAVIGATION
If the current Waypoint is a Start Pylon, the message “START
PILON” appears on the glide pages. 5 minutes before the
Start Pylon Absolute Time Gate, the instrument will
automatically switch the time display (the fifth in the
Thermal Display page and the third in the Glide Compass
and Glide Plotter Display screen) to the “Remaining count
down timer to Start Pylon Time Gate” (Timer Start “es”)
display.
Additionally. if the current waypoint is a Start Pylon, the
Glide Plotter Display automatically switches first three
instrument displays to “dst1”, er0” and “es” and also
disables the HSI cross hair.
When the “Remaining count down Timer to start pylon time gate” (Timer Start “es”)
reach “0” it starts to flash and a popup message “Gate Opened” with long beep alerts
to inform the pilot that the time gate has opened.
