TM 1-1510-218-10
3C-34
If an FMS is attached to the MFD, a waypoint
alert occurs when the aircraft is about to reach the
active waypoint. The active waypoint flashes to
indicate a waypoint alert.
i. Active Flight Plan and Other Course
Sources. If FMS is the selected course source,
waypoint symbols are connected together by course
lines of solid magenta ARC's, unless a gap in the
course line connections is commanded by the FMS.
The active waypoint and course line are drawn in
magenta. Other symbols and lines are drawn in white.
If the rho-theta location of a waypoint lies off the
displayable map area, a course line is drawn to the
edge of the display. All the waypoints that lie after that
waypoint are not connected with course lines. If VOR
is selected as the course source, bearing lines are
drawn on the map instead of course lines.
j. Course Source Failure. When the selected
course source sensor failure is detected, the sensor
annunciator becomes red and boxed and all symbols
and course lines are removed from the display. If the
course source goes invalid, the selected course
readout is replaced with red dashes. If a heading
source fails, all NAV information is removed from the
display.

If the accuracy of the FMS navigation falls below

Warn. The NAV Warn is indicated by changing the
FMS Primary NAV source annunciator to amber.

m. VOR Map Display Operation. Refer to

If the primary source is a VOR, a solid white
bearing line is drawn from the aircraft to the VOR
station. Since distance information is not available to
the VOR station, the VOR station symbol is not drawn.
