GPS “APPR” Mode Operation – WAAS GPS Underlay to ILS Approach
With ATC Vectors to Final
1. With a valid ILS approach loaded and active in the GPS, use the CDI Nav
Source Select button to couple the GPS to the CDI (Section 4.3.5).
2. Verify that the correct ILS frequency is tuned.
3. Set the HDG Bug to the heading assigned by ATC (Section 4.3.9).
4. Disable GPSS via the GPSS Hot Key.
5. Engage the autopilot in HDG mode, and verify that the aircraft turns to the
selected HDG.
6. When cleared for the approach and given the nal heading to intercept the
nal approach course by ATC, arm the autopilot’s APPR mode.
7. Monitor the CDI and aircraft track to verify that the autopilot intercepts the
nal approach course and begins to track inbound to the FAF.
8. Couple the EFD1000 to the VLOC source tuned to the correct ILS frequency
using the CDI Source Select button (if not done automatically by the GPS/nav
receiver).
9. Monitor the CDI localizer deection and verify that, upon intercepting the
localizer, the autopilot switches to APPR capture and arms the GS.
10. Monitor the autopilot localizer tracking performance. Upon intercepting the
GS, verify that the autopilot switches from GS ARM to GS capture and initiates
a descent to track the glide slope.
