CESSNA 300A AUTOPILOT
(TYPE AF-395A)
4. Heading Selector Knob -- ROTATE bug to selected course (VOR or
localizer - inbound or outbound as appropriate).
5. Directional Gyro --SET for magnetic heading.
6. NAV INT Button -- PUSH.
7. HI SENS Button -- PUSH for localizer and
cepts.
8. BACK CRS Button -- PUSH only if intercepting localizer front
course outbound or back course inbound.
CAUTION
With BACK CRS button pushed in and localizer frequency
selected, the CDI on selected nav radio will be reversed
even when the autopilot switch is OFF.
9. PULL-TURN Knob -- PUSH.
Airplane will automatically turn to a 45° intercept angle.
NAV TRACKING (VOR/LOC):
1. NAV TRK Button -- PUSH when CDI centers (within one dot) and
airplane is within ± 10° of course heading.
2. HI SENS Button -- Disengage for enroute omni tracking (leave
engaged for localizer).
Optional ARC feature, if installed, should not be used for
autopilot operation. If airplane should deviate off course,
pull out PULL TURN knob and readjust airplane rudder
trim for straight flight on the turn coordinator. Push in
PULL TURN knob and reintercept the course. If deviation
persists, progressively make slight adjustments of the
autopilot TRIM control towards the course as required to
maintain track.

SECTION .
GENERAL
The Cessna 400 Glide Slope is an airborne navigation receiver which
receives and interprets glide slope signals from a ground-based Instru-
ment Landing System (ILS). It is used with the localizer function of a VHF
navigation system when making instrument approaches to an airport. The
glide slope provides vertical path guidance while the localizer provides
horizontal track guidance.
The Cessna 400 Glide Slope system consists of a remote-mounted
receiver coupled to an existing navigation system, a panel-mounted
indicator and an externally mounted antenna. The glide slope receiver is
designed to receive ILS glide slope signals on any of 40 channels. The
channels are spaced 150 kHz apart and cover a frequency range of 329.15
MHz through 335.0 MHz. When a localizer frequency is selected on the NAV
receiver, the associated glide slope frequency is selected automatically.
Operation of the Cessna 400 Glide Slope system is controlled by the
associated navigation system. The functions and indications of typical 300
series glide slope indicators are pictured and described in Figure 1. The 300
series glide slope indicators shown in Figure 1 depict typical indications
for Cessna-crafted glide slope indicators. However, refer to the 400
Nav/Com or HSI write-ups if they are listed in this section as options for
additional glide slope indicators.
