ILS Approaches

Precision approaches can be performed with the
GNS 430W' s built-in VLOC (VOR/localizer/glideslope)
receivers. The GPS receiver can be used for guidance
prior to reaching the final approach fix, but once
there, the proper frequency must be selected on the
VLOC window (left side of screen) and the CDI output
set to "VLOC".
The GNS 430W can be set to automatically switch
the external CDI output from GPS to VLOC as you
intercept the final approach course (if used with a
KAP140/KFC225 autopilot, you will need to manually
enable outputs). When the ILS approach is activated,
the GNS 430W will automatically switch within 1.2
nautical miles left or right of the final approach course.
This switch can take place anywhere from 2.0 to 15.0
nautical miles from the FAF.
The illustration at right shows multiple locations
along the approach path and which CDI selection
you can expect: GPS or VLOC. Within the area of the
shaded box, the automatic switch from GPS to VLOC
should occur.
NOTE: If you attempt to intercept the approach
course at a distance less than 2.0 nautical miles
from the FAF, the GNS 430W will not automatical-
ly switch the CDI to VLOC. In this case, press the
CDI key to manually switch from GPS to VLOC.
