HSI ORIENTATION
The HSI may be configured to provide directional information in either 'Heading' or
'Auto Trk/Hdg' "Track-up" modes. Selecting Heading Mode orients the HSI to display
aircraft heading in a conventional manner with heading shown at the top of the
compass card as indicated by the lubber line. In 'Auto Trk/Hdg' "Track-up" mode,
the aircraft symbol and lubber line move to indicate heading and wind correction
while ground track in shown at the top of the compass card. While in 'Auto Trk/Hdg'
the HSI will remain heading-based when the aircraft is on the ground or when the
autopilot is in HDG mode. Refer to the G3X installation manual for more information
on configuring the HSI Orientation.

1) From the full screen PFD and/or split screen PFD Page, press the MENU Key.
2) Press the MORE Softkey.
3) Move the FMS Joystick to highlight HSI ORIENTATION.
