2.2. Controls
The primary means for the pilot to control the EFD1000 are the two knobs and three
buttons at the bottom of the display. The knobs control setting CRS and HDG, and
additional bugs and altitude settings. The three buttons control selection of navigation
sources for the CDI and bearing pointers.
Additionally, ve hot keys to the right of the Navigation Display toggle various features
on and o. The function of each is indicated by the label on the screen to the left of
each button. Three additional buttons above the hot keys control entering and exiting
the Menu system, setting the Map range, and reversion or manual power control.
2.2.1. Left and Right Knobs
The Left and Right Knobs are both of the push and rotate type. Pressing the knob
activates it for control, and subsequent presses cycle through its available control
functions in round-robin sequence.
Each knob has an inactive Home state, to which it returns automatically after 10
seconds of inactivity. The inactive state is designed to prevent inadvertent adjustment
of a setting. The Left Knob Home state is CRS, and the Right Knob Home state is HDG.
A single push of the knob activates the Home state (CRS or HDG) for editing.
To change an available setting, repeatedly press the appropriate knob until the desired
function appears in magenta above the knob (the setting you are changing will also
appear in magenta on the display). With a little practice, you’ll soon know exactly how
many presses it takes from the Home state to get to what you want to set.
