12 Operation
The operation section describes all of the features of the PRO model with all available sensor
options configured. Should your installation not include a particular sensor (i.e., NAV2,
autopilot) then that system feature will be not available. The PRO DIGITAL model has all the
features of the PRO minus
the autopilot interface. Likewise if you have the PILOT model which
does not have navigational and autopilot interfaces the operational features associated with
those sensors will be not available. The PILOT model is similar to the PRO minus
the following
features:
• HSI – has slaved DG with pilot settable HDG Bug
• Dual Bearing Pointers
• Lateral and Vertical Deviation Indicators
• MINIMUMS
• Basemap – navaids, curved flight plan legs
• GPS and VLOC navigation interfaces
• Autopilot interface – GPSS, HDG BUG and CRS Pointer
12.1 Pilot Controls
12.1.1 Overview
Pilot interaction with the EFD1000 is accomplished through two knobs with
push/rotate function and 11 buttons located on the display bezel. Refer to
Figure 12.1.
Two control knobs are used to control pilot settable bugs and references.
Three lower push buttons, located between the control knobs, are used to select
navigation sources for the bearing pointers and the HSI.
Three dedicated buttons on the upper side of the right bezel control map range,
display reversion, and provide access the main menu.
Five soft keys on the lower half of the right bezel control frequently used commands,
such as the HSI mode or map de-clutter setting. These five keys are also used when
navigating the main menu.
