OPERATOR’S MANUAL
CMA-9000 FLIGHT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
SEL CRS [3L]: Display of the localizer front course extracted from the navigation database or the manually-
entered front course. If a back course is entered in the active flight plan, the characters ‘BC’ will precede the
displayed value (NDB front course + 180 degrees). If no localizer front course exists in the NDB for the selected
approach, or if there is no ILS, LOC, or LOC BC approach in the active flight plan, dashes will be displayed. Upon
deletion of a manual entry, the NDB front course value will be displayed (if any), otherwise dashes will be
displayed. The field title and datafield is blank if there is no active frequency displayed in the LSK 1L datafield.
The datafield is blank if at least one of the "NAV CONTROL" discrete inputs is activated (e.g. the crew selected
the RMP as the tuning source of the navigation radios).
NOTE: An active frequency must be selected in field LSK 1L above for the SEL CRS entry to be possible.
Otherwise the entry will be rejected and the !INVALID ENTRY message generated.
DME [4L]: Display of the distance and station identifier received from the tuned DME that is paired with the tuned
ILS (1L). When the tuned DME is paired with the tuned MLS (1R), this datafield will be blank. No manual entries
are permitted.
STATUS [5L]: Display of the tuning status of the ILS receiver. Pressing this softkey selects the next option. The
possible values are ACTIVE and STANDBY. If the MLS STATUS (5R) is set to ACTIVE, the ILS STATUS (5L)
will automatically revert to STANDBY.
RADIO [6L]: Access to the RADIO top level page where the ILS/MLS is located.
MLS [1R]: Display and entry of the active/standby MLS channel and identifier. If the scratchpad is empty, line
selection will toggle the active and standby data fields. MLS identifiers entered in the standby field must be valid
navdatabase MLS-identifiers; otherwise the entry will not be accepted. MLS channels manually-entered in the
standby field will automatically display the associated MLS identifier if applicable. Auto-tuning mode can be
entered by assigning “DELETE” (pressing the [CLR] key) to the MLS standby channel. Returning to manual tuning
mode requires “DELETE” (press the [CLR] key) to be assigned to the MLS standby channel or swapping of the
active and standby MLS channels. Indication of auto-tuning mode is provided by the display of an inverse video
‘A’ next to the active MLS channel.
NOTE: Toggling between automatic and manual tuning is also possible using the ILS/MLS 2/2 page [1R] prompt.
Refer to ILS/MLS 2/2 page for additional details.
NOTE: When auto-tuning is enabled, the auto-tuned MLS channel and identifier received from the MLS radio
will only be displayed in the active field if the aircraft is within auto-tuning range, otherwise the auto-
tuned frequency and identifier will be displayed in the standby field. Refer to section 7 (Approach) for
additional procedure-related ILS/MLS auto-tuning details.
NOTE: If the MLS receiver transmits the station identifier, when a new channel is being tuned (either via
Autotuning or manual tuning), the station identifier associated with this new channel will be displayed
using the identifier defined in the navigation database, until a valid station identifier is received from the
MLS receiver
SEL CRS/GP [3R]: Display of the Course and Glide Path (azimuth and slope) extracted from the navigation
database for the active flight plan MLS approach or the manually-entered azimuth/slope. If the ILS tuning status is
ACTIVE (5L) or FMS MLS tuning is disabled, the data field will be blank. Upon deletion of a manual entry, the NDB
azimuth/slope value will be displayed (if any), otherwise dashes will be displayed. The field title and datafield is
blank if there is no active channel displayed in the LSK 1R datafield. The datafield is blank if at least one of the
"NAV CONTROL" discrete inputs is activated (e.g. the crew selected the RMP as the tuning source of the
navigation radios).
NOTE: An active channel must be selected in field LSK 1R above for the SEL CRS/GP entry to be possible.
Otherwise the entry will be rejected and the !INVALID ENTRY message generated.
