Approaches Without Vertical Guidance - Garmin G3X Pilot's Manual

4) G3X: From the PFD or PFD Page, press the VOR CRS Softkey (
XPDR/CRS > VOR CRS if a transponder is configured) and turn the FMS
Joystick to select the desired radial.
5) G3X: From the PFD or PFD Page, press the HDG/ROLL Softkey to access
the autopilot lateral modes and then press the AP NAV Softkey. If there
is less than half-scale deviation when the AP NAV Softkey is pressed, VOR
Mode will activate (green text), intercept, and track the selected radial.
If there is more than half-scale deviation when the AP NAV Softkey is
pressed, VOR Mode will arm (white text) first, then activate when closer to
the radial.

APPROACHES WITHOUT VERTICAL GUIDANCE

NOTE: For the autopilot to enter a VLOC mode, the G3X must have GPS reception,
a valid navigation database, and the external navigation receiver must have a valid
signal (VOR or LOC).
Press the AP NAV Softkey to arm/activate VOR, LOC/BC, and GPS (LNAV only)
lateral modes. Lateral modes acquire and track the selected navigation source (GPS,
VOR, or LOC), depending on the loaded approach. These modes use the selected
navigation receiver deviation and desired course inputs to fly the approach. Press the
AP NAV Softkey when the CDI is greater than one dot to arm the selected modes
(annunciated in white). Press the AP NAV Softkey when the CDI deviation is less
than one dot to activate, capture and track the selected navigation source (GPS, VOR,
or LOC).
