Vor Navigation (Nav) Mode; Vor Navigation Mode Engagement Procedure - Honeywell PRIMUS 1000 Pilot's Manual

PRIMUSr1000 Integrated Avionics System

VOR NAVIGATION (NAV) MODE

The VOR mode automatically intercepts, captures, and tracks a
selected VOR radial, using the selected navigation source displayed on
the HSI. The navigation source displayed on the HSI is a function of the
NAV source buttons located on the display controller (DC). Table 8--1
is the procedure used to engage the VOR NAV mode.
Step
1 Couple either the pilot' s or copilot' s FD to the autopilot with
the CPL switch on the GC.
2 Tune the coupled side navigation receiver to the frequency
of the VOR in use.
3 Select NAV as the navigation source on the coupled side
DC.
4 Set the pointer on the coupled side HSI for the course to
be flown.
5 Set the heading bug on the HSI to the intercept heading for
the selected course.
6 Push the NAV button on the GC.

VOR Navigation Mode Engagement Procedure

When the aircraft is outside the normal capture range of the VOR signal,
as shown in figure 8--3, the pilot engages the NAV button on the GC.
The HDG and NAV buttons annunciate. On the PFD, HDG annunciates
in green and VOR ARM in white, as shown in figure 8--4. The IAC is
armed to capture the VOR signal and generates a roll command to fly
the heading select mode.
