HGS Annunciator Panel
The HGS Annunciator Panel is installed in the First Officer’s instrument panel
and provides HGS status and warning annunciations to the First Officer during
CATIII approach, landing, and rollout operations.
In order to provide the high degree of safety necessary for manual CATIII low
visibility operations, the First Officer acts as an independent monitor and is
required to assess the approach to the runway and the performance of the HGS and
associated systems.
To test the HGS Annunciator Panel, set the master BRT/DIM/TEST switch to
TEST. When the BRT/DIM/TEST switch is in the TEST position, all legends on
the Annunciator Panel come on and stay on.

• AIII (green) – AIII mode is active and all required systems and
equipment are valid. It is displayed concurrently with the AIII mode
annunciation on the Combiner
• NO AIII (amber) – loss of AIII capability above 500 feet AGL. "NO

• APCH WARN (Approach Warning) (red) – system or approach
