AFCS
The following AFCS controls are located separately from the GDU and GMC 305
AFCS Control Unit:
CWS/AP DISC Button
(Autopilot Disconnect)
TO/GA Button
(Takeoff/Go Around)
248
An AP DISC/CWS Button is located on the pilot's control
stick. This button combines the functions of Autopilot
Disconnect and Control Wheel Steering. (Note: the
Control Wheel Steering function can be disabled in config
mode, which causes the button to perform the Autopilot
Disconnect function only)
Press and release the AP DISC/CWS Button to disengage
the autopilot. Pressing and releasing the button again will
acknowledge an autopilot disconnect alert and mute the
associated aural tone.
Pressing and holding the AP DISC/CWS Button when
the autopilot is engaged will temporarily disengage the
pitch and roll servos and interrupt auto-trim operation.
The pilot can then hand-fly the aircraft to a new attitude
and release the AP DISC/CWS button to re-engage the
autopilot servos and synchronize the flight director to the
aircraft's new attitude. The ability to use Control Wheel
Steering may be disabled in config mode if desired.
If the configuration supports it, pressing and holding the
AP DISC/CWS button while the autopilot is not engaged
will cause the autopilot to engage. If the flight director
was previously off, the default FD modes (PIT and ROL)
will be selected. The ability to engage the autopilot using
the CWS button may be disabled in config mode if desired.
Selects flight director Takeoff (on ground) or Go Around (in
air) Mode
When properly configured with a GTN, if an approach
procedure is loaded, this switch also activates the missed
approach when the selected navigation source is GPS
or when the navigation source is VOR/LOC and a valid
frequency has been tuned.
