on the EHSI between VOR1 or VOR2, or ILS1 or ILS2,
depending upon whether a VOR or localizer frequency
has been selected on the respective VHF navigation
receiver control panel.
The VOR/localizer switch may be used to activate the
preview mode on the EHSI if:
INS is displayed on the EHSI as the navigation source
LNAV flight director mode annunciator is displayed on
the EADI
System is powered-up using the primary on-side VHF
navigation receiver.
The preview mode may be cancelled by depressing
the V/L switch
(7)
INS/TACAN pushbutton selector switch.
The inertial navigation system/TACAN pushbutton
selector switch, placarded INS/TCN, is used to select
whether the INS or TACAN will provide information to
the EFIS. Each depression of the switch will alternate
the navigation source annunciator on the EHSI between
INS and TCN.
(8)
Double-needle
pointer
bearing
source
selector switch. The double-needle pointer bearing
source selector switch, located on the lower right side of
the display controller, is used to select which navigation
information sources will provide information to the
double-needle bearing pointer.
(a)
OFF.
Removes
double-needle
pointer from the EHSI.
(b)
VOR2.
Double-needle
pointer
receives bearing information from #2 VHF navigation
receiver.
(c)
ADF. Double-needle pointer receives
bearing information from ADF navigation receiver.
(d)
INS. Double-needle pointer receives
bearing information from the inertial navigation system.
(e)
TCN. Double-needle pointer receives
bearing information from TACAN navigation receiver.
(9)
Weather radar dim control. Control of the
intensity of the weather radar display on the EHSI is
accomplished by a control knob placarded WX DIM,
which is an inner concentric knob with the HSI DIM
knob.
The WX DIM control dims only the raster on the EHSI
which contains the weather radar information. If the
EHSI is in the composite mode with the EADI, the WX
DIM control is used to dim the attitude sphere.
(10) EHSI dim control. Control of the intensity of
the raster and stroke writing on the EISI is accomplished
by a control knob placarded HSI DIM, which is an outer
concentric knob with the WX DIM knob. Turning the
knob counterclockwise to the OFF position will cause
the EHSI to become blank and the composite mode to
be displayed on the EADI.
(11) Decision height setting control and EFIS test
switch
(a)
Decision height setting control. The
decision height setting control, placarded DHIRET, is an
inner concentric knob with the ADI DIM knob. Rotating
the DH knob allows setting the decision height display
on the EADI in 10-foot increments from 200 to 990 feet,
and in 5 foot increments from 0 to 200 feet By rotating
the DH knob completely counterclockwise to the OFF
position, the decision height display may be removed
from the EADL
(b)
EFIS test switch. Depressing the
EFIS test switch, placarded TEST, will cause the EFIS
displays to enter a test mode. In the test mode, flags
and cautions are presented along with a test of the radio
altimeter. Observe the following after depressing the
TEST switch:
NOTE
A complete test of the EFIS is only functional
on the ground. Radio altimeter test is
functional at all times except during glideslope
CAP/ TRK
Course select, heading select, DH set, DME distance,
and GSPD/TTG digital displays are replaced by amber
dashes.
ATT and HDG displays are flagged.
All pointers and scales are flagged.
All
heading
related
markers
and
pointers
are
removed.
Flight control computer standby mode is activated.
(12) EADI dim control. Control of the intensity of
the
raster
and
stroke
writing
on
the
EADI
is
accomplished by a control knob placarded ADI DIM,
which is an outer concentric knob with the DH
SETREST knob. Turning the knob counterclockwise to
the OFF position will cause the EADI to become blank
and the composite mode to be displayed on the EHSL
(13) Single-needle
pointer
bearing
source
selector switch. The single-needle pointer bearing
source selector switch, located on the lower left side of
the display controller, is used to select which navigation
