The first available page under the settings submenu is the
CDI settings page
,
which allows you to define the scale of the GNC 300’s course deviation indicator.
To change the CDI scale:
1. Press and hold
M
, and rotate
O
to select the CDI settings page.
2. Press
C
twice and rotate
K
to select ‘Auto’, ‘+- 5.0 nm’, ‘
+
- 1.0 nm’ or ‘
+
- 0.3 nm’.
3. Rotate
O
to highlight ‘ok?’ and press
E
to approve.
Note: the selected CDI scale will not take effect until approved.
The scale values represent full scale deflection of the CDI to either side. The
default setting is
+
-
5.0 nm. The ‘Auto’ setting will start the CDI scale at 5 nm, and
gradually ramp down the scale to the 1 nm range once you are within 30 nm of a
departure or arrival airport. You must have an active direct-to or route with an airport
as your final destination waypoint, or be within 30 nm of a departure airport. If you
have an active approach, the scale will gradually ramp down to the 0.3 nm range
once you are within 2 nm of the final approach fix.
Note that the GNC 300 uses
Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring
(RAIM)
to cross-check its position. The RAIM protection limits listed below follow
the selected CDI scale, changing automatically with the ‘Auto’ setting:
CDI Scale
RAIM Protection
+/-5.0 nm or Auto (en route)
2.0 nm
+/- 1.0 nm or Auto (terminal)
1.0 nm
+/- 0.3 nm or Auto (approach)
0.3 nm
The GNC 300 has three
magnetic variation options:
true, auto, or user-defined.
To set the magnetic variation:

When the ‘Auto’ CDI setting is selected, the
GNC 300 will automatically change the CDI
scale when you are within 30 nm of a departure
or arrival airport. During approach operations,
the ‘Auto’ setting will be automatically selected to
provide a smooth CDI transition from the 5.0 nm
to the 0.3 nm scale.
