4.3.6. Auto Course
The pilot can either use the AUTOCRS or manually set a CRS value. By default, AUTOCRS
is enabled. When the selected CDI navigation source is a connected GPS receiver,
and AUTOCRS is enabled, CRS is not adjustable (current course value is automatically
slewed and controlled by the desired track from the GPS). When AUTOCRS is enabled,
the CDI navigation source is a GPS system, and that system is congured for automatic
waypoint sequencing (i.e., not OBS, HOLD or SUSPEND modes) then Auto Course Select
is active.
Enable AUTOCRS
1. Push the MENU Key. The Menu displays on the Navigation Display.
2. Rotate the Right Knob counterclockwise until Page 1 of the Menu displays
(Figure 4-61).
3. Push the AUTOCRS Menu Key (Key 3). The menu label turns magenta and the
EDIT VALUE label displays above the Right Knob (Figure 4-62).
4. Rotate the Right Knob to select ENABLE (Figure 4-63).
5. Push the MENU key to exit the Menu.
When AUTOCRS is enabled, the CRS value is set to the desired track output from the CDI
Navigation Source. The CRS value is shown in the upper left of the lower display area in
green under the CRS label. Additionally, an inverted green A is shown beside the CRS
label in the upper left of the lower display area and in the legend above the left knob.
This indicates that the course is being automatically adjusted (Figure 4-64).
