Command Bars - Garmin G1000 Manual

AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEM

COMMAND BARS

Upon activation of the flight director, Command Bars are displayed in magenta on the PFDs as a single-cue.
The Command Bars do not override the (yellow) Aircraft Symbol. The single-cue Command Bars (Figure 7-5)
move together vertically to indicate pitch commands and bank left or right to indicate roll commands.
If the attitude information being sent to the flight director becomes invalid or unavailable, the Command Bars
are removed from the display. The flight director Command Bars also disappear if the pitch exceeds +30˚/-20˚
or bank exceeds 65˚.
