System Overview 1-25
COM-NAV
†
The VHF system consists of a communications transceiver that
covers the frequency band from 118.0 MHz to 136.990 MHz and
a navigation receiver that covers the frequency band from 108.0
MHz to 117.95 MHz. Both 25 kHz and 8.33 kHz spacing are
supported. The IFD comes standard with a 10 watt transmitter,
with an option to upgrade to a 16 watt transmitter.
Display
The active com frequency is the frequency that the radio will
transmit on when the Push-To-Talk button is pressed. A standby
frequency is a frequency that will become the active com
frequency when the bezel Frequency Swap button is pressed.
The active frequency is displayed in green and a standby is
displayed in white. The number of available standby frequencies
is configurable.
Display of the frequencies can be formatted in several ways via
the Setup Page (see page 5-39 for more details). The default
display format is two com frequencies (active and standby) above
two nav frequencies (active and standby). A custom display
format can be set up to display the active com and up to four
standby com frequencies.
The frequency that will be swapped into the active frequency
when the bezel Frequency Swap button is pressed is called the
“Standby”. For example, in the case where the user has set up 4
com slots to be displayed, any one of slots 2, 3 or 4 can be
selected to be the
“Standby” simply by touching the slot. In every
case, the
“Standby” slot is visually indicated by a cyan outline.
