(8) Compass Synchronization Annunciator.
The compass synchronization annunciator consists of
a and X symbol display. When the compass system
is in the slaved mode, the display will oscillate
between the and X symbol, indicating the heading
dial is synchronized with a gyro-stabilized magnetic
heading.

(13) Glideslope Pointer/Scale.

pointer is in view only when tuned to a localizer
frequency. If the aircraft is below glideslope path, the
pointer is displayed upward on the scale. Each dot on
the scale represents approximately 0.4° displacement.
(14) Course Deviation Bar.
deviation bar represents the centerline of the selected
VOR or localizer course. The miniature aircraft symbol
pictorially shows actual aircraft position in relation to
this selected course.
(15) Heading Bug.
heading bug is positioned on the rotating heading dial
by the heading knob, and displays preselected
compass heading. The bug rotates with the heading
dial.
The difference between the bug and the fore
(upper) lubber line index is the amount of heading
error applied to the flight director computer. In the
heading mode, the ADI will display the proper bank
commands to turn to and maintain this selected
heading.
The copilot's HSI also has an HDG flag which
indicates loss of heading information, a VERT flag
which covers the glideslope pointer when not receiving
glideslope information, and a NAV flag which indicates
a loss of NAV 2.

3B-15. PILOT'S ATTITUDE DIRECTOR INDICATOR.
a. Description.
Indicator (ADI) combines the attitude sphere display
with computed steering information to provide the
commands required to intercept and maintain a
desired flight path. It also contains an eyelid display,
expanded localizer, glideslope, radio altitude display,
rate-of-turn indicator, mode annunciators, go-around
and decision height annunciators, and inclinometer.
Any warning flag in view indicates that portion of
information is unreliable.
