4.2.3
Approach (APR) Mode Switch
The APR Mode provides increased sensitivity for VOR or GPS approaches.
The pilot may also select this mode if increased sensitivity is desired for
enroute NAV tracking. To engage this mode press the APR switch on the
Programmer / Computer. NAV and APR will be displayed on the
annunciator.
If the aircraft is equipped with a
remote annunciator NAV, APR, CAP,
and SOFT will be displayed.
4.2.4
GPS Steering (GPSS) Mode
NOTE:
The Autopilot is equipped with a GPS Steering (GPSS)
Mode that can be used for normal GPS course tracking
or for GPS approach. In GPSS Mode, the heading bug
and / or course arrow position has no effect on the
autopilot and may be preset for the missed approach
heading, etc..., as desired.
NOTE:
When operating in the GPSS Mode and properly coupled
to the GPS receiver, the autopilot will automatically steer
the aircraft around the GPS approach without further
heading or course inputs required by the pilot.
NOTE:
The autopilot will track only those segments of the
approach contained in the GPS Navigator database.
Procedure turns and holding patterns are not usually
contained in the data base.
