KFC 230 AeroCruze Autopilot Pilot's Guide
89000019-001
Rev 2 May 2019
When a new altitude is selected and the aircraft is
in a vertical path mode (IAS, Vertical Speed (VS),
or Pitch) toward the selected altitude, Altitude
Hold (ALT HOLD) mode arms to capture the new
altitude.
The arming of ALT HOLD mode is displayed by an
ARMED
label and displayed under the ALT
HOLD button on the autopilot screen. When the
autopilot begins to capture the altitude, the
.ARMED label is removed and the ALT HOLD.
button transitions to ALT CAPT , displaying in green. Once
captured, ALT CAPT changes to ALT HOLD until another vertical
change is commanded.
NOTE: When the altimeter baro correction is adjusted, the
autopilot automatically adjusts the internal reference
such that the new altitude will be re-captured.
3 Course Deviation Indicator (CDI)
The CDI is used for both NAV and APR
modes, allowing the pilot to see the
aircraft’s lateral deviation in relation to
the selected course. The CDI confirms that the autopilot is able to
track and capture the selected course signal, and indicates to the
pilot what maneuver to expect once the capture process begins.
The course indicator is green for radio signals and magenta for GPS
signal sources.
NOTE: The CDI is a situational awareness aid only and is not
an approved means of navigation. No flags are present
when signal is invalid.
