Localizer (Nav) Mode - Honeywell SPZ-8000 Pilot's Manual

LOCALIZER (NAV) MODE

The localizer mode automatically intercepts, captures, and tracks the
front course localizer beam to line up on the centerline of the runway
in use. To engage localizer (NAV) mode, follow the procedure in Table
8--3.
Step
1 Tune the navigation receiver to the published front course
localizer frequency for the runway in use.
2 Set the course pointer on the EHSI for inbound runway
heading.
3 Set the heading bug on the EHSI for the required course
intercept heading.
4 Select V/L as the navigation source on the display
controller.
5 The EHSI displays the position of the aircraft relative to the
center of the localizer beam and the inbound course. With
the heading bug set for course intercept, the heading
select mode is used to perform the intercept. When the
aircraft is outside the normal capture range of the localizer
signal (between one and two dots on the EHSI), push the
NAV button on the flight guidance controller
