BEARING POINTERS AND INFORMATION WINDOWS
Two bearing pointers and associated information can be displayed on the HSI for
NAV (VOR, Localizer) and GPS sources as well as nearest or best airports. The bearing
pointers are cyan and are single-line (Bearing Pointer 1) or double-line (Bearing Pointer
2). A pointer symbol is shown in the information windows to indicate the navigation
source. The bearing pointers never override the CDI and are visually separated from the
CDI by a white ring (shown when the bearing pointers are selected but not necessarily
visible due to data unavailability).
When a bearing pointer is displayed, its associated information window is also
displayed. The Bearing Information Windows are displayed at the lower sides of the
HSI. The following information may be displayed in the Bearing Information Windows:
• Bearing source (NAV, GPS)
• Pointer icon (single lined or
double lined)
• Frequency (NAV)
If an external NAV radio is the bearing source and it is tuned to an ILS frequency, the
bearing source and the bearing pointer are removed from the HSI and the frequency is
replaced with "ILS". If VLOC1 or VLOC2 is the bearing source and it is tuned to a VOR
frequency, the frequency is replaced with the station identifier. If GPS is the bearing
source, the active waypoint identifier is displayed in lieu of a frequency.
The bearing pointer is removed from the HSI and "NO DATA" is displayed in the
information window if:
• The NAV radio is not receiving
the tuned VOR station
