Manual GTN Crossfill
Manual GTN Crossfill is a feature that will keep the GNS system in sync with a
flight plan that is being used on the GTN system. The GTN
will not
automatically keep its flight plan in sync with changes made on the GNS
system. Manual crossfill feature is “one way” – from the GTN to the GNS.
The GTN systems support a variety of procedure leg types that the GNS systems
do not support. As such, it is normal and expected that the flight plan leg that is
displayed on the GNS system will not always match the flight plan leg on the
GTN system. Departure, arrival and approach procedures contain leg types that
the GNS does not support. The GNS typically “skips” over these leg types and
provides no guidance. Guidance may be available on the GTN but not on the
GNS in these cases. The GNS will sequence the procedure as it normally would
if Crossfill were not active. Once a leg type is reached that is supported on both
the GTN and GNS systems, the systems will automatically sync to the same leg.
If the GNS is interfaced with a GTN and the GTN Crossfill feature is enabled on
the GNS, then auto-switching from GPS to VLOC guidance on the CDI for
ILS/LOC approaches will be disabled on the GNS.
If the flight plan on an interfaced GTN is altered while in a hold, the GNS will
reinitiate guidance to the holding waypoint and sequence into the hold upon
crossing the waypoint.
If the Missed Approach is activated on the GTN prior to reaching the Missed
Approach Point, the GTN will automatically resume leg sequencing upon
reaching the Missed Approach Point. The GNS will remain suspended upon
reaching the Missed Approach Point and leg sequencing must be manually
resumed.
