Entegra EXP5000 PFD

HSI will display the appropriate course deviation indicator. The 
moving map from the associated GPS will still be displayed. 
For more information about the Wind Vector and the HSI moving map 
display, see Section 2.3, "EXP5000 Lower Half Display" on page 11  
Use the 

Bearing

 button to select the Nav source for the blue double-

line bearing pointer. If the selected bearing source is a Localizer, the 
bearing pointer does not display.

To take full advantage of the EXP5000, GPS 2 can be loaded with 
Direct-To waypoints, alternative flight plans, or Navaid frequencies to 
provide additional guidance beyond what is loaded into GPS 1. This 
information can be selected for display on the EXP5000 as the 

Bearing

While using the crossfill capability of dual-configured GPS systems is 
fully supported and a common technique, it can prevent you from 
taking full advantage of the multiple Nav source display capability of 
the EXP5000. 

For information about loading data into your GPS/VHF unit see the 

Pilot’s Guide

 for your GPS/VHF system.

Note

: The CDI on the EXP5000’s HSI comes from the selected 

Nav

 source 

which may be different from the CDI displayed on the GPS 1 or GPS 2 
displays.
