Projected Track Indicator
The projected track indicator based off of ground track information from the GPS
is located on the upper portion of the HSI. The indicator consists of a track
pointer and track line and moves relative to the compass rose scale to indicate
the magnetic track angle. It starts at the center of the compass rose scale and
ends at the tip of the track pointer.

Course Deviation Indicator (CDI)
The CDI consists of a CDI needle, a TO/FROM indicator, and a deviation scale
and corresponds with the NAV line select key on the PFD. The CDI arrowhead
points to the current selected course on the HSI compass rose to the current
selected course of the primary navigation source.
Course Selection
Course is selected with the left concentric knob and is displayed as course,
(CRS) in the NAV line select key window. Rotating the outer portion of the knob
changes the selected course in 10 degree increments, while rotating the inner
knob changes the selected course in 1 degree increments. With a navigation
frequency tuned and identified, pressing the left concentric knob centers the
course with a TO indication. Pressing the knob without a navigation frequency
tuned and identified, synchs the course selection arrow with current aircraft
heading.
