Heading Source Annunciator -- The selected heading source
D
(MAG or TRU) is annunciated in white at the top center of the EHSI.
FMS Message (MSG) Annunciator -- The
D
flashes to alert the pilot that there are messages posted by the FMS
on the control display unit. This annunciator flashes until the pilot
clears the message on the control display unit.
FMS Drift Bug -- The
D
between desired track and aircraft track, as computed by the FMS.
Target Alert Annunciator -- When target alert is selected (armed)
D
on the weather radar controller, a boxed
weather radar detects a potentially dangerous target within
the aircraft heading, but beyond the displayed weather radar range,
the annunciator flashes T. In VAR gain mode, a
location.
Heading Dial -- IRS compass information is displayed on the
D
rotating heading dial. The azimuth ring is marked in 5 increments.
Fixed heading marks are at the fore and aft lubber line positions and
at the 45 points.
Course/Desired Track Display -- This display is a digital readout
D
of the course selected by the course select pointer. If FMS is
selected, desired track (DTK) is displayed.
Course Select/Desired Track Pointer and Deviation Bar -- The
D
green
course select pointer is rotated around the heading dial by
turning the CRS knob on the instrument remote controller. The
course pointer rotates with the heading dial to give a continuous
readout of course error to the flight guidance computer. Pushing the
PUSH DCT button on the CRS knob rotates the course pointer to
a zero deviation course TO the VOR station.
In the ARC mode, if the course pointer is more than 60 away from
the lubber line, the pointer is removed and an off--scale arrow (below
the compass card boundary) indicates the shortest direction to the
course pointer position.
When FMS is selected, the course select pointer becomes a desired
track pointer. The position of the desired track pointer is controlled
by the FMS.
The course select/desired track deviation bar represents the
location of the selected course/track to the present aircraft position.
