Avidyne FLIGHTMAX Entegra - Non-Precision Approaches

FlightMax Entegra PFD
-28- 600-00081-000 Rev 07
The Entegra PFD is also designed to aid in the flying of non-precision
approaches. Once the published approach has been activated in the
navigator system, the inbound course on the Entegra PFD will be
automatically set to match the inbound course of the published
approach.
A recommended technique when performing an autopilot-coupled
(55X Only) non-precision approach is to select the HDG, NAV and
ALT buttons on the autopilot while still outside the FAF. Prior to reach-
ing the FAF, use Entegras VSI bug to set the desired VS descent
rate, use Entegras Hdg Bug to set the desired heading for
climbout/missed approach, and use Entegras Alt Bug to set the
desired intermediate level off altitude or the MDA as a visual reminder.
Crossing the FAF, VS mode should be selected on the autopilot and
just prior to reaching MDA, ALT should be selected on the autopilot to
command altitude hold.
For Software 530-00123-000, Rev 01 or higher:
The Entegra PFD is designed to fully support flying back course
localizer approaches. To perform a back course localizer, ensure the
front course value is set via the Entegra PFD course knob. As soon
as the Entegra system determines itself to be established on the back
course localizer, the HDI source label indicates LOC BCRS and both
the HDI and CDI display correct sensing. There is no further pilot
action required.

For coupled approaches, the Autopilot may have to be set to
reverse mode. Please consult the Autopilot POH for proper
operation.
