Normal Operating Procedures
4.2.1 Heading Mode
Set the heading bug on the DG or HSI to the desired heading, and press
the HDG button. The HDG annunciator will illuminate. New headings can
be selected simply by repositioning the heading bug.
NOTE:
When operating in the
HDG Mode, the system is not
coupled to any navigation aid. It merely flies the heading
bug. It will be necessary to monitor navigation instruments
for course deviation due to wind drift and wind correction
angles.
4.2.2 NAV Intercept and Tracking
If your aircraft is equipped with an HSI, your S-TEC autopilot will receive
both left / right deviation and course information. With an HSI, the heading
bug is not used during tracking. To intercept and track a VOR or GPS
course, select the desired course with the HSI Course Pointer and engage
the NAV Mode.
If your aircraft is equipped with a DG, the HDG bug must be set to the
desired course before engaging NAV Mode. The HDG bug provides course
information when using the NAV Modes.
If the course needle is at full-scale deviaton, the autopilot will establish a
45
!
intercept angle. As the aircraft approaches the selected course, the
autopilot senses the closure rate and gradually shallows the intercept
angle. The point at which this turn begins is variable, depending on the
aircraft position and closure rate to the course. However, the turn will
always begin between 100% (full-scale) needle deflection and 20% of
full-scale.
