SPZ--8000 Digital Integrated Flight Control System
Course Preselect Pointer and Deviation Bar-- When the FMS
D
navigation mode is selected for display on the EHSI and a localizer
frequency is tuned with the on--side VHF NAV receiver, pushing the
V/L button on the display controller displays the
preselect pointer on the EHSI. Turning the CRS knob on the
instrument remote controller rotates the course preselect pointer
and displays the course preselect digital readout in place of the
desired track digital readout. The course preselect digital readout
remains displayed for 5 seconds after the CRS knob has been
turned, and then the DTK readout is displayed again.
For the ARC mode only, if the course pointer arrow (or tail) is more
than 60 away from the lubber line, the pointer arrow (or tail) is
removed.
The course preselect deviation bar represents the location of the
selected preview course to the present aircraft position.
Glideslope Deviation Pointer -- The glideslope pointer and scale
D
are displayed when an ILS frequency is tuned. It displays aircraft
deviation from glideslope beam center. If the aircraft is below the
glideslope beam center, the pointer is deflected upward.
NOTE:
When back course is selected with the flight guidance
controller, the glideslope scale and pointer are removed.
TO/FROM Annunciator -- In the FULL compass mode, an
D
arrowhead in the center of the EHSI indicates whether the selected
course is TO or FROM the station or waypoint. In the ARC mode,
TO/FROM is annunciated by either TO or FR. The TO/FROM
annunciator is removed during localizer operation.
Aircraft Symbol -- A fixed miniature aircraft symbol corresponds to
D
the longitudinal axis of the aircraft and lubber line markings. The
symbol shows aircraft position and heading with respect to the
rotating heading dial. It also shows the aircraft position in relation to
a radio course.
Time--To--Go, Groundspeed, or Elapsed Time Display --
D
Pushing GSPD/TTG button on the display controller alternately
displays groundspeed or time--to--go. Groundspeed display range
is 0 to 999 kts with 1--knot resolution, and time--to--go display range
is 0 to 399.9 minutes with 0.1--minute resolution.
Pushing the ET button on the display controller changes the display
to elapsed time (ET). When in the elapsed time mode, the ET display
can read minutes and seconds or hours and minutes. When ET is
displaying hours and minutes an
