Manual Arm / Automatic Capture
If approach vectoring locates the aircraft above or too near the glideslope
centerline at the intercept point (usually the outer marker), it becomes necessary
to execute manual arming of the glideslope. This is done by pressing the
ALT switch once (if operating in the altitude hold mode) pressing the ALT
switch twice (if operating in the VS Mode). Once capture is achieved, the
GS annunciation will illuminate and the ALT annunciation will extinguish.
The system includes a glide-slope deviation monitor. If the aircraft strays
off glide-slope centerline by 50% needle deflection, the GS annunciator
flashes a warning. It also flashes when the GS flag is displayed. When
this occurs, the FAIL annunciation will illuminate.
NOTE:
If it becomes necessary to establish a holding pattern
at the Outer Marker, automatic glide-slope arming can
be disabled by pressing the APR switch a second
time while in the NAV / APR Mode. The GS annunciator
will flash and ALT will annunciate.
The GS annunciator will flash, and
the ALT and DSBL annunciators will
illuminate on the optional remote
annunciator to indicate the GS Mode
is disabled.
To re-establish GS arming, press the APR Mode switch again. The disable
(DSBL) annunciator will extinguish, the GS annunciator will cease to flash
and remain steady. Re-arming will occur when all other required conditions
stated have been met.
