Navigation Information
Regardless of Compass Mode setting, the current magnetic heading is always shown
at the top center of the Navigation Display (
Figure 2-2, No. 50
and
Figure 2-38
). The
HDG Bug setting is shown in the Selected Heading Field (
Figure 2-2, No. 52
). This field
is always visible even if the HDG Bug itself is only partially visible in ARC Compass Mode.
Similarly, on the EFD1000 Pro PFD HSI, the current Course setting (CRS) (
Figure 2-2, No.
51
) is always shown, whether or not the Course Pointer itself is visible in ARC Compass
Mode.
A Selected CDI Navigation Source Information Block (
Figure 2-2, No. 65
and
Figure
2-39
) is presented in the upper left corner of the Navigation Display. The Source
Information Block indicates the Selected CDI Navigation Source (coupled to the CDI
on the Pro PFD HSI), and its associated mode (e.g., GPS, VOR, ILS, LOC) . Information is
provided about the selected source, including, when available, the waypoint identifier
or navaid frequency, waypoint bearing and distance, and the estimated time to the
active waypoint.
Ground Track Marker
When the PFD is connected to a compatible GPS, a blue Ground Track Marker is
displayed on the compass rose at the value that corresponds to the aircraft’s ground
track (
Figure 2-2, No. 49
and
Figure 2-40
).
When the Ground Track Marker is aligned with the Course Pointer on the Pro PFD HSI,
the aircraft is tracking on, or parallel to its desired track.
To align the Ground Track Marker with the Course Pointer, turn away from the direction
in which the diamond is offset from the Course Pointer (think of it as a turn to pull the
Ground Track Marker toward the Course Pointer).
