Selecting the work profile
The AP70/AP80 can be set up with 6 different work profiles associated with different work
modes or preferences. Use the AP70/AP80 controller to set up the different work profiles. In
the MFD, the active work profile is displayed in the Mode button of the MFD Autopilot
controller pop-up and the Mode selection pop-up. If the MFD has control of the autopilot,
you can use it to select which work profile is active.
To change the work profile using the MFD, the autopilot must be in standby mode.
