OPTION SETTINGS
While in Flight Mode, aOption Settings menu is available to the pilot or cockpit crew
members. The Option Settings offer multiple options that do not affect the aircraft
specific configuration of the unit (these must be set in Configuration Mode by authorized
personnel during installation and/or maintenance). They are provided for convenience,
preference or potentially necessary in-flight adjustments.
The Option Settings menu can be accessed by pushing and holding the control knob for
approximately two (2) seconds. The brightness adjustment bar will appear briefly before
the menu is visible. The menu will appear in place of the attitude display and will revert
to the active attitude indicator if no activity occurs for ten (10) seconds.
The Option Settings root menu contains the following options: (as shown in Figure 3.7)

MENU OPERATION
The menu parts are defined below:
Menu title – white text on a blue background at the top of each menu and sub-menu
Current item cursor – highlighted by a white box and green background
Selectable items – any selectable item on the menu is indicated in white text
Unavailable items – information only / unavailable options are indicated with gray text
Menu operation throughout the MD302 is simple and intuitive:
Turning the control knob will scroll the green cursor highlight over the available
options within the current menu. By default, the currently set value of each menu
option is displayed in gray directly to the right of each setting. Pressing the control
knob for any highlighted item will activate it and make its options available to the
right. Scroll to the desired option and press the control knob to select it. The green
highlight will return to the menu options on the left and the new value will be
displayed in gray to the right.
After confirming any setting by selecting it, that setting will become active and be
saved in memory, regardless of whether the EXIT MENU command is selected or it
times out and automatically reverts to the attitude display.
