REV 2
Multifunction Display (MFD) System
5-10
D Weather Radar Mode -- The weather radar mode annunciator
displays the status of the weather radar system. When in STBY, no
weather information is displayed. Weather is added to the display
and WX is annunciated when the WX button on the MFD controller
is pushed.
NOTES: 1. The MFD display is the only display that includes
weather radar mode annunciators and the tilt
angle.
2. When the optional TCAS is installed, TX is
displayed when the radar is transmitting, but
weather is not selected for display.
3. If dual weather radar controllers are installed, a
left/right arrow is displayed in the weather radar
mode area to indicate which weather radar
controller is controlling the MFD weather display.
D Target Alert Annunciator -- TGT is displayed below the weather
radar mode when the target alert mode is selected. This annunciator
turns amber when a red target or stronger is detected within 7 1/2
of aircraft heading beyond the desired range. VAR is displayed in
place of TGT when the weather radar system is not in calibrated gain
mode.
D Waypoint and Waypoint Data -- The number of available
waypoints is dependent upon the long range navigation system that
is providing the data. The selected range determines the number of
displayed waypoints. The TO waypoint is magenta. All other
waypoints are green. The DAT button on the MFD controller adds
waypoint identification and distance to the waypoint information on
the display.
D Aircraft Symbol -- The white aircraft symbol is a visual
representation of the aircraft position in relation to the desired track.
D TO Waypoint Identifier, ETA/TTG, and Distance Readout -- T h e
identifier, ETA (or TTG if ETA is not available), and distance to the
designated waypoint is displayed in the lower right corner of the
MFD.
D Crosstrack Deviation -- Indicates the deviation in nautical miles to
the right (R) or left (L) of the desired track.
D Displacement Line -- T h e cyan displacement line indicates the
position of the designator relative to the nose of the aircraft.
D Designator -- The power--up home position of the designator is the
aircraft present position. The designator is controlled by
the joystick, the SKP, and the RCL buttons on the MFD controller.
