Dme Radio; Radio Tuning Window; To Change The Dme Mode - Garmin G1000 Pilot's Manual

DME Radio (optional)
The DME radio is a Honeywell KN63 remote-mounted,
200-channel, 100-watt, all-solid-state digital DME which
provides distance information to the G1000.
The DME information window is displayed by press-
ing the PFD softkey followed by the DME softkey.
The DME information window is displayed above the
BRG1 information window. The DME information win-
dow displays the DME label, tuning mode (NAV1, NAV2,
or HOLD), frequency and distance. When a signal is in-
valid, the distance is replaced by "–.– – NM"
The pilot may select from three DME tuning modes:
• NAV1 – Tunes the DME frequency from the
selected NAV1 frequency.
• NAV2 – Tunes the DME frequency from the
selected NAV2 frequency.
• HOLD – When transitioning from NAV1 or NAV2
mode to Hold mode, the DME frequency remains
set to the last selected NAV frequency.
NOTE: When navigating in GPS mode the dis-
tance displayed is the GPS-derived, great-circle
distance not the actual DME distance.
NOTE: DME radio installation is optional.
