Integrated Autopilot
Selecting LOC Mode with GS Mode:
1) EXTERNAL NAVIGATOR: Tune and activate the desired LOC frequency.
2) G3X: Ensure that LOC1 is the selected navigation source (use the CDI
SRC Softkey on the PFD or PFD Page to cycle through external navigation
sources if necessary). The HSI should automatically slew the needle to the
correct course.

3) G3X: From the PFD or PFD Page, press the ALT/PTCH Softkey to access
the autopilot pitch modes and then press the AP APPR Softkey. This
simultaneously selects LOC Mode and GS (Glideslope) Mode. If the
localizer deviation is less than half-scale when the AP APPR Softkey is
pressed, the autopilot will activate LOC Mode and track the localizer,
otherwise LOC Mode is armed and the pilot is responsible for intercepting
the localizer.
If the following occurs, the autopilot reverts to Roll Hold Mode (wings rolled level):
• Approach Mode is active and the Navigation source is manually
switched
• The localizer signal is lost
If the Glideslope signal is lost , GS Mode will revert to Pitch Hold Mode and hold the
last pitch attitude.
